Mechanic said he didn’t have to trim factor bolts when installing RC 1.75

Just wondering if this is a thing? Every video I’ve seen they trim the factory bolts and use the extensions. Should I be worried ?

 

My understanding is that trimming factory studs is not needed if you keep factory wheels and have a spacer of at least 1 inch. The factory wheels have recessed pockets where the little bit of factory stud sticks out from the spacer. I ordered 1 inch about a week ago. They haven't come in yet so I cannot confirm this yet.

 

Think op is referring to rough country leveling kit and not wheel spacers.

 

How did this play out for you? I'm thinking about the same thing, a 1-inch spacer with stock rims.

LoL

Way to derail or otherwise misunderstand the OP's thread.

 

Still waiting on those 1" boras to show up. Once I get them on, I'll PM you the results so we don't upset anyone by sharing here. Geez.
