Whos using spacers with H2 wheels? I have rubbing at rear UCA at full lock to the right. Just have to watch it for now. Am still waiting for mine. I was told I've should have told them I needed it, but the web sight says it included if needed.

You should not need spacers with those wheels. Not sure why you are having issues. There are some people on here running them that will chime in, but you might want to turn the bars up a little more and that might stop it.. Good luck

He's got the Cognito kit....IIRC, they said "with some rims you need a spacer on the front". Maybe the H2's fall in that category.

I have the H2's on mine and I remember the issue. The 1/4" spacers are to keep from rubbing the UCAs with the Cognito kit. I thought they were included with the kit. Since I don't have that leveling kit, I can not say. Hope that helps... some.

They are needed to run the H2's with the Cognito kit due to the fact that they are 5.5" backspacing...Just a thought to remember when running those spacers, our trucks have hubcentric rims and center the wheel with the hub rather than the lugnuts...put the spacers on and you no longer have hubcentric and may"may" run into balance issues...just FYI.

I asked Justin this specific question and his reply was that the H2's would not fit because of the backspacing. Who else has installed the H2's with the Cognito kit? Any problems? My 285's on stock rims rubbed the back side of the UCA on drivers side.
The Cognito kit doesn't really work with that much backspacing, which is why they don't reccomend using the H2 wheels. But if you are going to use them, you would need the spacers.

Got spacers today. Will go in to work Saturday & switch the ball joints to the bottom of the UCA's like it should be. Lets hope for the best!!
Did you have your front end allignment done? If it was not alligned, I am not sure if that would have affected the rubbing.

I was told the Pro Comp lift kit was best used for the H2 rims because of the back spacing?
