05 explorer sport trac
I am tryin to make my 05 ST look bad a, but for right now can't afford a full on lift. I plan to purchase a PA 3inch body lift soon but for right now I'm thinking about wheel spacers to enhance the appearance of my stock rims. Has anyone does this before if so I'd like to know ur setup:)

as far as i have seen on this site 1.25" and 1.5" is about normal. 2" is pushing it
 






I have 2" spacers in the rear and have ran them for about 2 years with no problems. I wouldn't run the in the front though.
 






Do u have stock tire and rim setup on the rear? If so is it noticeable? If not, what rim and tire setup do u have?
 






I have 15x8 Ions and 33 mickeys.
 






I wouldnt run more than 1.5" up front because it would stress the IFS too much. I think It'd be a sweet setup if you had 2" in the rear and 1.5" up front.
 






have a 2001 sport trac running on stock wheel and tires. Looking for advice on installing wheel spacers to add stability. What does anyone recomend? 1" 1.25 1.50" front and maybe 2" in rear? Appriciate any advice.

I would run 1.25" if you choose to run spacers to make sure that your stock lugs are completely covered. Some guys have had problems with the 1" spacers.
 






I used to run 2" spacers in the rear with my 285/75/16 tires. I'm now on 315/75/16s with 1.5" spacers. Never had an issue with either setup.
