rear spacers make a HUGE difference in the appearance of 4wd S-10`s... especially the CC`s.

i swapped my 1.25" spacers from the CC to my EC, and the CC looks kinda puny now...

It would be nice to have hardened studs, but it really isn't necessary unless you frequently tighten your lugs nuts to 200 ft pounds.

These are not the old over stud spacers. These are wheel adapters. They include a second set of wheel studs that mount the wheel to the adapter. They need nor require longer/hardened studs.

I did break two studs when I put the spacers on but that was because I was using a 1/2 socket wrench instead of a torque wrench. Once they were replaced and torqued correctly(not by gorilla method) they have been fine.
