Default Thoughts on hub centric wheel spacers??

Title says it all. Was thinking about installing a set of hub centric wheel spacers on my Honda, 2009 TRX250EX
I like my stock wheels and don't wanna have to shell out more $$$$ for wheels if I don't have to.
Was thinking that 2" spacers would allow me enough room to turn my car and not rub.
What do y'all think? What is the best place to order wheel spacers ? Any suggestion ?
Thanks.

Nothing wrong with them. I ran 3" spacers on the rear of an old AC 500. Made it much more stable, never a problem, even with heavy loading, see picture. I found mine on eBay...

Nothing wrong with them as long as u buy quality parts. Doubt you will need a 2" spacer i ran a 3/4 on my cat when i installed the lift to cure rubbing. You will loose turning radius the wider spacer you put in. I ended up taking out my spacers and loosing the lift as i lost to much turning with them i could no longer turn on a forest service road in one sweep
