Im looking to widen the stance of my quad, but ive seen how much a new set of a arms cost, and saw that wheel spacers can make it sit a little wider. Any suggestions on what to get?

Go with arms for sure, in the long run you'll thank yourself for it. I would'nt go jumping with spacers either that spells trouble.

Wheel spacers do the opposite of improve handling, they make it worse. You may not tip over as easy, but your steering effort is increased and generally worse handling comes out of it. It's not an opinion, it is a mathematical fact.
