Changed out my spring to Eibach to lower the car more and wanted to bring out the front wheels to be flush with the fender. I haven't got the car on the ground but I know is going to look killer.


Will add pictures once the car is done. More stuff needs to be done.

Let's see this thing. The tires are already nice and flush, but if it looks better--I'll be tempted.

The rear is nice and flush but not the front. Front is tucked in stock.

Did u have the FP springs previously?
Yes they are for sale.

If the Eibach turns out to be little soft I will buy the programmer and retune the shocks.

Btw,

The studs are ford f250/350 super duty 25000lbs load rating. $3.99 each made in usa and they are10.9 grade. Perfect length and fit for my spacer and I can also use my close end lugs.

I also painted the back of the hub where it was rusted. Came out nice.

One more thing,

The stud head needs to be clipped about 2mm in order to fit through. I used my bench grinder and used touch up paint to seal it.

Mine came clipped. I run a 10mm spacer on my street wheels and a 35mm on my track wheels (square setup)

Do you have a part number for the F250 stud? They solve a problem for me.

Niz, shouldn't the title say "12.5mm spacer being installed? ;)

On a serious note, should look good. The front definitely need a bit more poke. Only gets worse when you add camber.
