Personally I would avoid them, because I would rather have wheels with the proper back spacing. But that is not always an option, just for comparisons sake big dual rear wheel diesels come with huge spacers from the factory and they tow thousands of pounds.

There are potential problems that can come along with wheel spacers, twice as many jug nuts to keep properly torqued for example and they can cause increased wear on suspension components (that would be the same though with equivalent wheels) but spacers themselves are not a problem you just need to make sure you check everything periodically.
