Will those work for the front too? Where to I find front spacers?

Guys are putting same spacers front and back.

Anyone running 20 mm spacers and have photos?

I received my 20mm set yesterday, I'll try to get them mounted this weekend and post pics.

BBB - Sorry about the oversight on my end. This thread has been very active and there are indeed a couple guys running them up front.

Oh yeah...They're back in stock and ready to rock! Get em' while they're hot fellas.

Don't hesitate to let me know if anyone has any questions or needs our discount code and I'll get you set up!

Okay - I just installed mine a few minutes ago. Below are some isolated cellphone pictures of the front driver and rear driver sides. The left image on each picture represents the before, and the right image is the after.

These are on a 50th Anniversary AP with stock 19" wheels and tires. Pictures don't do it justice...I'm very happy.

These all look good; Just curious though- has anyone had any issues with rock/debris chips on the car yet from running the spacers?

I have the same concerns

And i only ask because with the wider wheels on our 11' GT/Brembo car we eventually ended up with rock chips on the fenders. wouldn't mind running some spacers out back but i'll wait on ordering until others have run spacers long enough to tell if they'll cause any chips.

I dont think just doing the rears is of any concern. I dont think there is enough car behind the rear wheels for rocks to hit if kicked up by the wider stance. Cars behind you? Thats a different story.

I can tell you that my wheels with these 1" spacers stick out further then most posted in this thread (they are aftermarket with a more aggressive offset then stock to begin with) and I have been down a few roads with loose gravel at 50pmh with no chipping issues running the spacers on the rear

so i installed these today, but i have a slight wobble at 100+...i torqued the spacers to 95 and wheel too 150. I allso torqued the wheel down while it was in the air. Any ideas to what the problem could be?

Im not sure about spacers but was always told told to tighten somewhat in the air just a lil to get it secure. Then lower the car down and torque down then so I would recommend redoing it

I would double check your torque. On both the spacers and wheels. Make sure nothing got caught between the spacer and rotor and spacer and wheel. Clean off the hubcentric ring on the hub ensuring the spacer is completely flush and clean off the back of the wheel so that sits perfectly flush on the spacer.

And have you went 100+ recently before installing the spacer? If not you could have a slight bend in the wheel that could have happened before you installed the spacers. Or possibly lost a wheel weight inbetween. After doing all things said above if the vibration is still present remove the spacers and road test again to see if vibration goes away. If it does problem lies with the spacer or install of spacers. If it's still present with no spacers, have a road force balance performed on the wheels/tires and check for bends in the wheels.

This! Keep us in the loop on this please.

Also check to make sure the original hub studs are not bottoming out in the wheel hub pockets. Someone using 20 mm spacers reported that he had to cut the ends off the original hub studs because they were bottoming out inside the wheel pocket and not allowing the wheel to sit perfectly flush on the spacer.
