Wheels rubbing?
Afraid you are going to roll over?
I am not a hater, I am just one of those why-er's?
The only "possible" unsafe things I have read are:
Do they center properly as that the weight should be carried by the hub and not the lug studs?
Are all of the lugs properly torqued?
Google search "hub centric wheel spacers" click on "images", seems everybody has them from Summit Racing to Amazon to eBay. Sorry, I cannot make any recommendations due to my lack of experience. But If I had to, I believe I would stay with a well known brand regardless of the price, but that is just me!
Back to my opinions, I run aluminum wheels on my CJ5, I check my lug nut torques about every three to four months. For some reason they sometimes will get a little loose. I cannot see compounding that possibility with even more mechanical's to be involved.
I also cannot "see" going wider, I can squeeze my Willy's into/through some tight spots, even a bit wider my CJ5 can do some squeezing too. During mid CJ production they widened the axles even more, and ever since it looks like everybody wants to widen more and be a Hummer. It is easier to squeeze through the woods than to run over them!
Hang around, the next generation may be as wide as you want without modifications.
I am not even going to go into parking spot squeezing.
Let us know how it works out, pictures are welcome!
