About LinkBacksHey all - planning the 3" Toytec and 285/70R17's on the stock 17" wheels for my '06 DC. From what I read, I will need to space the wheels out, and for best performance I should go with adapters that are both hub-centric and wheel-centric.
The Spidertrax fit the bill, but their website says "out of stock" with no indication when more might be available. I can't find any other adapters that are both hub- and wheel-centric.
Any suggestions on where to go for these? I'd like to keep it to about $200 for all four.
Thanks!
Hal

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? Anybody? I've searched the archives, and the only other option mentioned is expensive custom-made jobbies.

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? The only other option I know of are the Marlin Crawler spacers. They are high quality, and hub-centric. When you attach the wheels they are lug-centric I believe. I assume you are looking for spacers that also have the correct o.d fot the inside of the wheel hubs. I didnt even know these existed. I know a lot of people use the Marlin Crawlers with no problems.
I've been researching this for a while because the wheels I want only come in 4.75" backspacing, and I want to run 285's. Let me know if you find anything else out.2005 Stepside TRD AC- phantom grey pearl, Toytec Coilovers set at 2.5", 285/65/18 Nitto Terra Grapplers on Pro Comp 18x9 9089's, Magnaflow 15820 cat back, K+N fipk, Pioneer in dash dvd, 2 Infinity Kappa 8's under rear seat w/Directed 600d amp, all Infinity Kappa components in doors, Escort Passport 8500 radar hardwired, Scangauge II w/ blendmount, clear corners
, 35% tint, Tonneaumasters tonneau cover, fog light mod, Silverstars, Optima Red Top, Wet Okole seat covers w/TRD logo, Hellwig 7700 sway bar, LED Bed lighting(awesome mod!) Next: do something about the ugly stepside taillights

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? Go to WheelAdapter.com . A lot of TS'ers have had success with them; myself included.

They are not a cheap as something mass produced like Marlin Crawlers, or the el cheapos on eBay, but IMHO, they are worth it. I've had mine for over a year, and have had no problems at all.__________________________________________________Salty DogYou've been...

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? Yeah, I looked at the Marlin Crawlers, but I really don't want to have to deal with centering the wheels by eye. (Stock wheels, yaknow.)
The ones at wheeladapter.com look nice, but I can't afford $400 just for wheel spacers. That's why I liked the Spidertrax so much. Didn't get the chance to call them today, but I'll try tomorrow and see when they expect to have them back in stock.2006 DC 4x2 SR5, Bluesteel over light charcoal leather

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? Centering by eye?
It's not really that difficult to use non-hub-centric adapters man. Just have to tighten the lugs in a cris-cross pattern, then finally torque them down in the same pattern. The wheel will be on straight if you do it right, there's no centering by eye.New to the forum? CLICK HERE!

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? I have had the wheel adapters (1.5") from Fred on my truck for about 6-8 months. Worked perfectly and no balance issues. I am running 285/70/17 on my factory rims with Camburg UCA and Teamwest coilovers at a 3-4" lift. I did have to remove my mudflaps once I put the adapters on because of rub. But that was better than rubbing the frame at full turn. I would not buy from anyone else. He knows what you need for your vehicle. I ordered one morning and he made them and shipped them that afternoon so I could install on that weekend (while the wife was away).

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? The TOPLINE brand spacers are really nice and are like 90 bucks a pair, GM ones will work but will require you to buy some 12x1.5 acorn nuts and 14x1.5 lugnuts.

Re: Hub- and wheel-centric adapters - where? Thanks for all the feedback. I spoke with Spidertrax yesterday, and they will have more adapters available 4/11. Since I'm not in any rush, I'll just wait.
