Spacers

[97JF]

Anyone recommend the best Spacers to fit on the rear of my 98 GT ? Eibach seem to be quite popular, it's totally stock at the moment as far as I can tell and the wheels are not filling the arches, also what size would be best ? I see a lot 30mm or 50mm sizes, thanks

i have 1.25" from am. and thats on a 10" wide wheel. havent had any problems so far.

good to know tony. I have thought about running spacers on my stockers to fill up the wheel wells more.

 

[Tony]

one of the first things i did was grab those asap, lol! the one real issue i have with 94-98's is the booty is wide and the rear tires almost disappear into the wheel wells...spacing them out made a huge difference. looks good with the stock wheels too..

 

[Tony]

i just dug through all my pics to show you the difference with 17x9 cobra wheels and 1.25" spacers and no spacers. no pic, lol...hmmm. thought i took some pic of that, lol

 

[J.Cagle]

dang! now I wanna see what it looks like! lol

 

[Tony]

hahaha, yea sorry bout that. what a tease right, lol. it really stood out from the front looking down the side. made the whole rear of the car beefy.

I had a set on mine and don't trust them. They felt like they would come lose one nite at the track so after that I took them off just my 2¢

just a heads up but if you have stock split spokes like I did you cant run the bolt on spacers without having to cut down your stock lug studs. My 98 cobra wheels have little "pockets" in between the lug holes so I was able to use them with those wheels, but not with my split spokes. Btw I am running 1.25" hubcentric bolt on spacers with 17x8 wheels.

 

[Tony]

good point!, he's talkin bout these

 

[clark98gt]

Thanks for the assist Tony, lol

 

[Tony]

lol, i'm bored

I am also running 1.25 Hubcentric(please for the love of god make sure they are hubcentric) with 295s and have had no problem. They have been auto-xed on and everything.. Well when I had 275s anyway... not with the new 295s..

Either way they hold up fine and really fill up the wheel well..

best pics I have. so hope they give you an idea.. btw 1.25s with 275s fill the wells perfectly.. the 295s.. stick out a tiny tiny bit lol

 

[J.Cagle]

Ill be running the stock '94 pony five spoke wheels for the time being until I get something else. The rear spacers should make them "tolerable" for a while haha

MM sells spacers and they're hub-centric, which i'd highly recommend.

I have a no name brand 1/4" spacer with 10.5" Bullits and 315 35 17 BFG's. Looks good enough for me..

(such an old pic)
