Searched but did not find an answer to my question so here goes. I have a pair of 2" spacers and a pair of 1.5" spacers for the FJ40. Installed the 2" on the front and have a 64-64.5" track width (center of tires), the rear is the 1.5" spacers for a 63-63.5" track width (center of tires). Am I better off with more front track width, more rear, or run it square? It is SOA, 39.5 iroks, driven to the trail.

Thanks

I have my front wider then the rear. Seems OK with me. I would not worry much about it.
 
Of you look at most of the late model GM trucks, all of their front tracks are wider than the rear. I don't know if this was intentional but apparently it's not an issue.
 
my font is also a tad wider than the rear. no biggy

a half inch on each side is not anything to blink at
 
Many years ago GM made their 4x4 trucks with the front axel wider than the rear axel. With reasoning that the rear tires would get more traction if they were not in the exact tracks of the front tires. I don't think it made that much difference one way or another. So yo should be fine.
