Thanks for the info Steve!!!
On the 8.5 wide rim with the 245/35's I used a 10mm hub centrical spacer for two reasons, 1 - to get the center cap to go on and 2 - the tire was to close to the ball joint for me to feel it would be safe. I wanted a 5mm and bought a pair, but they did not have the 66mm lip for the wheel to fit on. I guess they figured there was enough of the 66mm hub sticking out for the wheel to fit on, witch they did, but good enough for me. I got all my spacers & lug bolts thru EZaccessories, but there was a problem with the spacer not fitting over the dust cover of the spindle. The lip of the spacer that the center of the wheel fits over was 3mm thick, I took one of the dust covers to work with me with the spacers and use a metal lathe to take 1.1mm out of the inside. They fit over the dust covers like a glove, I wanted to make them as tight as I could so that the spindle housing will be supporting the wheel.
