[QUOTE="rpf500, post: 596426, member: 6870"] No worries man. I figured you were being sarcastic and couldn't believe, like me, that I ruined a set of tires so fast. Anyway, I can't speak for the dodges and leveling, but I don't think in my case that has anything to do with the tire wear. GM has torsion bars and a-arms and I went the "correct" way and instead of cranking up the bars, spent the money on new a-arms that are made to factor in the increased ball joint angle if that makes sense. As for the spacers......I was about to cheap out on them and then I called and talked to Fred at Wheel Adapter and he was very knowledgeable and friendly and pretty well sold me on how his spacers are made using Timken Steel, are hub and bolt centric, and he has not had any failures come back. Considering my family rides in here, along with others sharing the roadways with their families, I didn't think a few hundred was worth risking it. The only drawback to running spacers and wide tires IMO, is when it rains just the slightest bit and the road is wet, the truck is instantly dirty. [/QUOTE]
