| Not Ranked : 0 score To fit the fronts, I'm assuming you will need AT LEAST 15mm of a spacer. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score On a Speed3, I don't think there will be enough room in the back either. Do you have over a half inch of clearance all around your wheel/tire in the back? |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Yeah you will definitely be fine in the back. Tiger- How much room do you have in the front? with the 9.5" +42's. I'm eying a pair of 9.5" +50 and I'm trying to see how much spacer I'll need.. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score With my setup, I have a 8mm spacers up front right now. It's about 2mm clearance from the strut, I am gonna space it out more since my pulled front fenders make my 9.5" look like I am riding on 8". -_-

| Not Ranked : 0 score Why not just order a proper size so you wont need a spacer? Or do you love these wheels you found? |
