Wheel Spacer Size Question 2022 Z71 Tahoe

[Hunter Linn]

Hey guys,

I purchased a 2022 Tahoe Z71 this week. I am looking to purchase the RC 2/1 lift and I’d like to also put wheel spacers on that sit flush with the wheel well with a 285/60r20 tire.

What size wheel spacer do you guys reccomend to have the tire/wheel sit flush with the wheel well?

I had a 2015 Yukon a few years ago but I cannot remember what Wheel spacer size I had with the 3.5” lift.

I was wondering the same. I haven't seen anything smaller than a 1" spacer but base on my eyes, that would get it close enough IMHO.

I have seen some 5/16th” and smaller on eBay. These do not have the studs. They go over your existing studs. Seems l the problem is 1-1.25” I believe it is related to the studs but I am not certain.

I would not got more than 1/4” on stock studs and nuts. From there just jump up to 1” + and maybe need to trim your studs.

I ordered the 1” Hub Centric spacers. They will be here Sunday. I’ll likely install Monday and give feedback.

Hey guys,
Sorry it has been a while. I went with the 1” hub centric spacers on Amazon. It does not say it fits the vehicle but I put them on anyway. I did not require any trimming of the studs. With the Z71 wheels there are hollow areas where the stud fits inside it on the spacers. Have driven about 5,000 miles so far and no issues to report. The wheels sit perfectly slightly outside the wheel well how I wanted. I’ll try to get some photos this weekend.

Cheers

I would also like to note I am not going to do the 2/1 lift as it seems very level as is for some reason. Have not taken official measurements yet.

I don't trust wheel spacers but if I did I would go with BORA.

I have the exact same Z71 and looking to do the exact same tire size and leveling kit haha
Have you had any luck? Any pics?

I am running BORA 1.25" spacers and love the look. The "pockets" on the back of the wheels are just deep enough to accommodate the studs without the need to trim them.

I would say that the tire sidewalls protrude slightly from the fender, but the treads are flush, if that makes sense.

Do you have any pics?

I just hope that all the road crap that will now be slinging up on the edge of your wheel well and the exterior quarter panels won't chip away at your clearcoat and paint.

Do you have any pics?
