wheel spacers....to buy or not?

[03ccf350]

i am looking at going to a 13.5" wide tire and am currently running a 12.5" with rubbing on my inner leaf. i have 4.5" backspacing on my kmc rims. i am looking at a wheel spacer but not really fully sold on the idea. my concern is when i am towing a heavy load. i know that this has been asked before several times, but i would like to hear from others that have used spacers while towing a heavy load or had a set for awhile.
thanks

use fred goeske at wheeladapter.com. Make shure they are hubcentric. I have his spacers for 70k miles with no issues. I haul 10-12k on a semi daily basis with my construction business.

yeah mike, i am just waiting on an email back from him. i am just a little nervous using them. but, then again, i am not going to haul as much as you do.
