Looks great. So... I am really interested in how it effects your drive. Different? Better? Worse? In the rain and mud, does it throw more debris on the side of your JL? Did you check to see if there could be any warranty issues. Great color with the GCM by the way.For anyone interested in running wheel spacers in their stock Rubi wheels/tires... here’s what it looks like.

Could you post some pics from the rear, before and after?All you need now is a half decent offset wheel(+12 and under)
Looks great...hard to imagine 1.5" makes that much of a difference, but it does
I didn’t notice any difference in the ride quality. Right after installing them, I took a 200 mile trip on the highway and everything was fine. I didn’t have it in the mud yet, but I’m quite sure it’s going to fling mud up the sides. No idea about warranty.Looks great. So... I am really interested in how it effects your drive. Different?

Thank you! Looks great!!!
I have Bora 1.5" spacers and stock wheels. No issues with the studsCurious..post #2 references 1 1/2" spacers. Synergy WEBsite - for the JL - indicates that the 1 5/8" spacer is replaced by the 1 3/4" spacer. They do have 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" spacers for other Jeep models.
So...the studs are a tad longer on the JL as I recall thus maybe the 1 3/4" is to eliminate any need to grind them on aftermarket wheels. But stock wheels have the recesses to handle an exposed stud end, but how long?.

1) Can any of the other listed spacers work on a JL?
2) Would a JL spacer (from someone else) at 1 1/2", 1 1/4" or even 1" clear for a stock wheel no stud grinding?
1-5/8" spacers cleared most JL studs without trimming, but we had one vehicle in the shop that required the rear studs to be slightly trimmed. I believe it was a Sport. 1-3/4" spacers don't require any trimming.Curious..post #2 references 1 1/2" spacers.
