wheel spacers?

Hey all. I just got 265/75-16 BFG A/T put on the truck. I think they look great! My question: What are wheel spacers all about? I would like the tires to come out an inch or so from the fender. Are these an ok thing to get? Just give me some opinions. I have read that they create a weak point. Is it that bad? I dont think I'll ever be going mudding or anything like that. Do I just need the spacers or is there more to it than just slipping on a spacer? Thanks!

When I thought about doing mine, I was going to do 1/2" spacers, and put on longer wheel studs. i think most kits come with longer studs, but i was going to make mine, so I was just gonna find some longer studs.
