Yes those are the spacers I have. Do the 601’s have a pocket or will I need to do some trimming?


HAPPILY EVER RAPTOR

If you add spacers, you'll need to trim.

If you're running a 35x12.50R20 on the 601s and you're leveled, you will not need to trim.

I think he means will he have to trim the wheel studs or do the 601s have a pocket like the stock wheels. I could be wrong. Thanks.

I'm still debating on wheels.. this deal has me real trigger happy. On 20's with 35x12.5. Do you need level to avoid trimming or is it ok on stock height.

In some pics I feel 20's are too big and some it looks good. However if i go 20 i will.only run 3 season and keep the 17's for winter.

If you run a conservative tire like a 35x12.50R20 BFG K02, then you’ll most likely be okay at stock with a 2017-18. If you have a 2019, you’ll be fine.

If you run a more aggressive hybrid or MT tire, you’ll have some fender contact at full lock. You can choose to live with the minor rubbing or do some trimming.

We run 325s with 3” collars on our 2018 and I just lived with the trimming because it was minor and only at full lock.

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Ok, thanks.
I have a 2019. I would def be running a hybrid. Do u prefer the 325 over 35x12.5? I know they are about the same. Just curious.

Out of curiousity, what are u trimming? Looking at mine. The only thing for a larger tire to hit at lock would be the fog light cover I installed to protect the back of my fog lights from debris, mud, etc.
