Wheel Spacer & Black Lug Install! (BORA) - Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk 

tasteful yet aggressive. good job

Update on 0.75 inch wheel spacers with 265 65 17 tires! I have them on and they fit and they DO rub the fender liner but it's not quite enough to justify a pinch weld. If you have 265 65 17 or 245 65 17 (of course) or 245 70 17 you should be fine. However ...if you have 255 75 17 (32s) or if you have 265 70 17 you probably WILL have to do the pinch weld mod ... But if you have those tire sizes, You probably already did that anyway... So I would say that for any of the MFC "approved" sizes , If you followed their guidance, Then you will probably be okay with 0.75 inch wheel spacers. RRO has them . I did have some vibrations at 70 mph but when I took all the wheels off and re torqued the spacers after 50 miles (as recommended) I had no more issues ! They just needed to "break in" .

I wanted to thank you for making these quality videos regarding your 2015 jeep cherokee trailhawk. I have one identical to yours and it has been great watching your plentiful and thorough videos on this vehicle. I'm thinking of getting the same wheel spacer and headlight/fog light upgrades that you installed. I loved the look of it. It's a great vehicle.

That looks PERFECT! Motorsport Tech: high quality!

Great video!!! Could you please make a video of pros & cons of these spacers in a long run? Thanks a lot! Cheers.

I like the wheel space to set up but I can only imagine my truck Lowered low enough

Oh wow! Those spacers make the Jeep look so much better. Maybe make it more stable in handling, with wider stance? The black spacers, with Bora logo match the wheel very nice too. I am putting some on my Jeep next. Thanks!

aren't you supposed loosen the bolts when the car is on ground before lifting the car?

i love the way you take care of your car thanks

would you recommend sticking to 1.25" ? I was considering a little bit more poke and going up to 1.50" but I wasn't sure how much rubbing there would be.

It’s awesome because I just started watching your videos and me and you almost have identical cars😂😂

Great videos!!! If I add the 1.25 spacers, and keep the stock tire size, will I be able to just trim the liner to avoid rubbing? Thank you

I see this video is four years old. I love the way your KL looks. I’m thinking about getting a set. I was wondering if you still owned this Jeep and how the spacers have held up. Have you had any issues? Is it necessary to check the torque on the bolts that hold the spacers to the hub on every tire rotation? Thanks, Bill

I putting 18x8 wheels on a stock jeep tires 225/60/18 what do you think size spacers I would need for tires to look flush like yours ?

Thanks for tue video! Looks awesome! I have a MFC 2” lift kit installed on my 2019 Trailhawk and want to put some spacers. Also want to upgrade my stock tires to 255/65 or 265/65. Do you think the 1.25” spacers would rub too much, or with the tires upgrade better install 1” spacers instead? Thanks again for your help!

Man your car is pretty nice! Congrats!

I'm about to add 255 tires on my limited, I may throw some spacers on too, great video

Great detailed video! Question I had was around how the spacers affect the turning circle of the vehicle? It would make it worse right? Only slightly but it does affect it.

Looks great gives the SUV a more muscled aggressive look, certain suvs should just come factory off the show room floor like this, or atleast give buyers the option of sitting normal or wide, I plan to put these exact same sized spacers on my Toyota Highlander SUV, thx for the video.

Hi, first of all thanks for making the video. I have a question, does the spacer cause any effect on the turning radius?

hey man I have a 2018 jeep Cherokee trailhawk. I was looking at getting some spacers and I do like the 1.25 inch spacers. What is your overall opinion on the spacers and did you have an issues?

Off subject of wheel spacers,... But i have a 2015 trailhawk do you know if it comes with an auxiliary battery for the Stop/Start function. I seem mixed info as far as it does not have one, to there is one under the fuse box, to under passenger seat, to under back seat. My stop/start light will come on while driving sayings something like battery isn't charged enough. and then the light symbol comes on ( the A in a circle with ! ) Then it goes off once the car is turned off. Thanks for any info you can provide

It does look good.

Only problem is moving the center line of the wheel out puts more strain on the wheel bearings

Looks great. I have a ‘17 and considering this...does putting the spacers on void warranty?

I am running a Rough Country 2" lift, w/ a 265/70/R17 set of tires. Still getting some rubbing on the inside of the tire/fender on the rear. Would a 1" spacer kit push me out far enough to stop rubbing?

What type of anti seize did you use? I saw there was nickel, copper... all different types. I’m guessing it was the permatex aluminum?

I bought Bora .75 wheel spacers based on your awesome video. Question, what size lug nuts did you use?

CarGuy11 High Quality content! How are they holding up being you posted about 3 years ago?. I’ve just bought a new ‘19 olive green latitude 3.2 V6 with the 4x4 AD1. Already have the MFCoffroad 3”+ kit coming subbed with new fox shocks. Plan on running 245/65/17 Mickey Thompson Deagan 38 tires. And some 17x9 x -6 Mayhem Prodigy 8300 wheels! In your best opinion, are these spacers worth it? I’ll be able to get a nice mildly aggressive stance with no rub?

Have you had any rock throw with the wheels poking out? I’ve read that doing this will ring up the side?

Thanks for your answer !

Are the trailhawk Wheels 5x100

thanks for the information. I may definitely get spacers from that company but I am not a DIY-er so I may have to pay someone to do this, I think since I am thinking of painting the wheels black they will re-balance them and hopefully install the spacers too. We will see. As far as down the future, I want to get into serious off roading so I want to lift the vehicle at least 1.5 inches and install new 32" tires (255/70/17). I've seen guys do this with their KLs but I am still apprehensive about tinkering with the geometry and suspension since I hear that being of independent type suspension, it's not as easy as it seems, unlike the solid axle Wranglers. Any thoughts?

Nice touch

Nice look

Awesome thank you! I’m driving a 2014 Jeep Cherokee and your videos are perfect!

I also just bought myself a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, and I love the thing and so do my friends lol. First of all thanks for the videos, and great job in making them..you have helped me out quite a bit bud so thanks again. I am also thinking about the spacers, but also been thinking about a black gas cap fuel filler door, if they even have that for a trailhawk like I have. Second of all I am having transmission issues, and I have read these 2015's are known for having issues with their 9 speed transmissions, so do you or any of you have issues with your transmissions? I love my Jeep and do not want this issue, and I just paid $21,300 for it a couple months ago to boot, please advise me. Thanks

Where can I find the bolts? I have the spacers but they didn’t come with the bolts.

what is the name of the electric wrench you have & price?

Have you had any rocks kick up and hit the sides of the KL after you spaced out your wheels???

Does your impact wrench give torque specs? Also what's the model number for the impact wrench

You probably have mentioned this before but what size tires are you using with the spacers. I plan to do this and be like you with the 1.25" lug NUTS rather than bolts. But I am also wanting a 2" lift along with bigger tires like 265/65 17 A\T tires Faulkin or Cooper like yours. Not sure if i will have wheel well clearance or rubbing, I rather not mess with making those mods for the lift and bigger tires, but I'll see your thoughts?? I just purchased the trailhawk yesterday 2015 3.2: v6 Mango Orange with 75K miles.

Can you post a link to the correct type of lug nuts you bought please? I just ordered some 1.5” for mine and forgot that I watched this and it does come with any haha.

Any corrosion issues with aluminum and steel metal touching each other

Have you seen anywhere where someone installed the 2" ones on the kl trailhawk?

Will any auto body place do this type of work for me if I order the parts or is this something I may have to do on my own with my trailhawk?

do the tires bite on the under fenders at all under full articulation? say if the left front and the right rear were both bottomed out at the same time?

What's the reasoning behind wheel spacers on your Cherokee ?

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Stupid question but I have to ask, why stick out the tires?

I was wondering if your Trailhawk was lifted?

5x110 or 5x112?

Do you think I would be able to use spacers with my 17” latitude wheels??

how is everything holding up since the install?

Doesn't anyone use a jack stand anymore? I guess I'm old school and believe in safety....

where on the bora site did u find the black lug nuts?

It does look better.

On there website it says the lug nuts are included, is that not true?

Do y have a link to the lug nuts u used?

Do you rub when you turn with the spacers ?

looks good I put 2" spacers and 2014 5 spoke 20" Grand Cherokee wheels and tires on my jeep Commander makes a big difference

Nice video!!!!

how many centimeters is the spacer?

Will these fit a 2014 Jeep Cherokee latitude

How has the mpg been affected? Looks great

how are the spacers holding up 7 months later?

What is the link for this spacers?

Hope pass inspection?!

Thank you

Do you have a link to the new lug nuts? Thx

What's the part number for spacers?

Hello, good evening, I always watch your videos. I also have a Cherokee Trailhawak I want to put those you can send me the exact link to order it thanks

Does the Bolts come with the package?

what size tires are they?

Hey I hope you see this comment how do I get the black wheel studs?

What size is your lift kit

Will these spacers fit the same on a2016 cherokee?

I've always read that these wheel spacers aren't good for the truck/car. So what gives, it looks good but is F**k up your rig??? Also does that have a lift kit on it? I want to lift my 2019 Trailhawk and have a hard time finding ANY aftermarket parts for it other than floor mats or something like that. That part of the is real disappointing!!!

Whats the size of the spacer?

Does adding the spacers help you put any bigger of a tire on there

what lift kit would you get??

Hi there, I have a 2015 grand Cherokee summit 20 “ rims, will adding these same spacer rub on my front tires/fender wells when the lift goes in to sport mode or exit mode, because of the airlift suspension? Thanks

Is your Trailhawk lifted? If so how much?

Any rubbing whatsoever??

already subscribed ... great insruct but obnoxious irritating music ... just so you know many people listen with earphones and when you blast equipment, good idea to shut down the mike or move it. Yikes. Thanx

Half the video was some one washing their tires......

Dony want to scratch your offroad vehicle wheels???

We could do without that background music

Do you think AT 245/65/17 will fit my active drive 2 latitude 4x4 ?

What level of lift kit do you have
