Wheel Spacers on Aftermarket Wheels?

Hey guys, I know this is a bit of a debated topic, but I've made up my mind for the most part that I'm okay with slapping on some Hub-Centric wheel spacers.
I have +18 offset aftermarket wheels currently. But I feel like the stance still isn't quite to my preference. I'm thinking 1" or 1.5" wheel spacers would get me there.

Does anyone out here have wheel spacers on their aftermarket wheels? If so, any recommendations? Pictures of your truck would be awesome too. Thanks.

Like tires, wheels, and colors, poke is all about personal preference. I don't like it at all on sports cars, but I do get why some people like the look on trucks. Personally I prefer flush, but have definitely seen some nicely set up trucks with a bit of poke.

I think I'd stay with 1" max, haven't done it myself but from some reading I'm not sure you want to be pushing those wheels too far out on a HD truck.

Thank you for the resource! Do you happen to have any pictures of your truck using these spacers?

Agreed, I'm thinking an inch to 1.5" max. They currently sit pretty flush, and I'd like just the slightest poke in my stance.

Oh hell I'd never use spacers on my truck :). I have aev wheels with +27 offset and think that is perfect but I know we all have different taste
 
Personally, I'm not a fan of what we jokingly call the "Lifted Lowrider" look, but regardless...

If you are just looking to see what it would look like you can look at trucks running an offset that matches what you'd end up with.

Assuming those are 9" wide with the +18, you could look at 9" wide with a -7 offset (1") or a -20 (1.5")

The CustomWheelOffset gallery is a good resource to get a feel for what others have done.
