After looking at aftermarket wheels such as venomrex, and method wheels, I feel like the oem 37 beadlock just looks better imo.

Was thinking to add a 1” or 1.25” bora spacers to get close to 00 offset, but from what I’ve read, it seems that any spacers less than 1.5” requires you to shave a bit of the oem studs from poking out of the spacers?

The question is - will installing a 1” spacer is going to give me headaches, and I should just get a set of aftermarket wheels? Problem is I love the 37 beadlock style.

Depends on if the wheels have any cavities for the over length studs to go into. Only one way to find out,

The 19-20 beadlocks didn’t seem to have trouble running 1.25” spacers but I’d imagine you’d be cutting the studs for 1” spacers.

Bora will custom make spacers for you, I did on my gen 1 to get 0 offset. I believe they were 33 mm or 1.33 inches?
It’s not the custom that I worried about , it’s the oem studs sticking out pass the spacers that require trimming.

I’m waiting for my gen 3 with 37pp, it’s 30mm I believe.

I run 1 inch bora spacers on my gen 2. Trimming wheel studs isn’t a big deal. They are cheap to replace in the future if you ever so choose. I only had to trim the studs on the rear. 40k trouble free miles so far, including several aggressive off road trips.
