After he figured out this nasty vibration i have, not to mention the really bad one last spring which no other mechanic could figure out, i trust his judgement and advice. I can understand it, but cant put in words why a wider wheelbase would handle better.
Or maybe its like this, your more stable with your feet spread a little apart than with them close together.
I know there are others on this site that are really savy with the mechanics of these trucks, its just that i live near VZ and he's the only one that has ever worked on my truck.
I sure wish some others on this site were within a few minutes drive as well, VZ often gets slammed busy.

even the 1.25 come with lug nuts

Tim, so how do we install this style? Seems like the stud will be covered too far, or does the lug bolt sink inside the spacer???

So by that logic, everyone who runs aftermarket wheels with that offset must have bad wheel bearings.No, but running wheel spacers moves the tire Off-center of the wheel bearing causing leverage and additional directional forces in the bearing, small differences in back spacing won't have any noticeable effect but say you combine some factors like a large curb weight, over-sized tires and excessive backspacing and you can cause the forces exerted on the wheel bearing to exceed the capacity on the bearing either resulting in reduced bearing life or complete failure depending on how much force in applied. So while wheel spacers or rims with back spacing will not automatically kill wheel bearings you should take into account that the more spacing you have the higher the strength of the forces that your wheel bearings will have to deal with Very much like how bigger tires add stress to the drive train and transmission, there are also other factors that I didn't go into take a look at this: http://www.fourwheeler.com/how-to/1110or-truth-about-wheel-spacers-safety/
