I need about another half inch or so of room from my notch and rim so I was thinking about getting some "spacers" for it. My airbag is located between the rim/tire and the notch.... I was told some might cause a vibration after 40mph....looking for any suggestions...positive or negative about them...thanks...
if you don't understand look at the video in the beginning...

spacers wont cause much vibration if they are made correctly. I got some bad ass ones from a guy on ebay, wheeladapters I think is his ebay name (I did a pattern change so mine are technically adapters as well as spacers) They are top notch. With a 1/2 inch spacer you will need longer studs or bolt on spacers. You can get 1/4" spacers at the auto parts store, but I recommend you spend the money on extended thread lug nuts if you dont put in longer studs (just for 1/4, I would defintely get longer studs for a 1/2)

I would worry more about that -35 degree pinion angle causing vibration anyway... I know it gets better at ride height, but holy cow man.
