30mm is going to put you in the 1.25" catagory and am not such a fan myself. I recommend you torque the "hidden" nuts to proper specs and check them at least once a year to confirm they are holding up and remain tight.

Boy, there is a LOT of talk about wheels spacers of late and these widths just seem off-hand to me. I installed a set of 1/2" ones, but did LOTS of research on how they would fit and the tolerances I had to run them.
I have no idea if the 1.25" spacers you plan are going to work. They will mount and your tire will install, but will the tires then clear the fenders and not rub on the inside.... I don't know.
How wide are your wheels and what is the off-set?

lol^^^ I had a guy tell me at CJ Pony Parts I should buy wheel spacers for my car, I laughed at him and told him I juts needed to buy bigger wheels... I guess they're a cheap fix for some, but I'd be worried about my wheel flying off, just my opinion
