Any of you use your stock wheels? Now I've been reading that you have to use wheel spacers?
Thanx

I ran stock on my 04 for a few days. Doetsch brand/cast are fine, but I believe fab tech and maybe some other brand/cast may not work, IIRC.

Recieved wheels and parts spindles today and will be installing this weekend. The spindles look really good especially for the cost.

Nice. I was impressed with mine, they're pretty solid.

Yea mine definitely stick out at least a half inch per side. You can easily tell when looking from the front or back, but it's not much.
