Kind of like saying, if you swap your axles we won't be able to balance your tires anymore.. He was an asshat

Thanks guys, that is what I was thinking as well. The spacer isn't mounted on the wheel so there should be no balancing issue. Perhaps there are spacers that mount to the wheel and maybe that is what he was talking about. I will just tell them what I want and trusty research

I am looking to go to a Duratrac 255 or 265 for my 2007 WK and keep the stock wheels. I ordered a set of Spidertrax wheel spacers so I could keep my stock wheels and not lift it (saving the money for my JK I am building). I spoke with my local tire shop and he said that it is hard to get the...
