Best PP wheels stance

[turbo65]

Hey guys, believe me I researched a ton of posts but couldn't find a definitive answer. So what's the perfect stance for the PP wheels? Give me spacer size, springs and alignment settings if you can too.

What I'm looking for in the stance:
1- flush tire to body
2- gap doesn't have to be totally eliminated
3- no rubbing (I dd my gt)

I'm leaning towards 1" spacers and steeda sport progressives. Should I go ahead? Thanks and sorry for the repetitive post:love:

That's the exact setup I'm running and I really like it. I am adding spacers front and rear on the springs to have a little gap, but that is just my preference. I'm finishing the rear today and can post a pic when i'm done.

When I run my PP wheels, this is what I do:
23 or 25 mm front spacer
20 mm rear spacer

I do have extended lugs (for track purposes) so I can run those spacers (slip ons). If you don't you'd have to cut the end off your lugs for the 23 and 20mm spacers, I'd think, and get spacers with lugs integral which frankly I don't trust.

The Steeda Progressives, as I have seen like 3 times now in person, look wonderful with spacered-out PP wheels, but in ALL instances regardless of spring, IMHO, a 25mm spacer on the rear comes out just that wee bit TOO far, unless you are running maximum camber in the rear (which is about -1.8 to -1.9) - then maybe it's okay.

This week I installed BMR 089/082 springs on my GT/PP and the shop that did the work had 25 mm spacers in stock. They installed them and I found that the front had just a hair of poke, but the rears has way too much poke for me. I would say about 1/4" of poke.

They removed them and have a set of 20 mm coming in next week and I'll go back and try those.

BMR performance 25/23 mm spacers. I don't like the "slammed" look and BMR offered best looking drops IMO

TBH a 25mm spacer on a 9.5" wheel looks silly from the RR if someone really knows what they're looking at and the poke is excessive. 20mm is probably best but you have to cut the studs. 23mm is the closet without cutting so that's what i have all the way around.

Here is my car with 25 mm front and 20mm rear. Mind you, have max camber in the rear (without Steeda's adjustable camber arms, anyway) and -2.5 up front.

25 mm front and 20 mm rear is a good setup.

Looks perfect!

Really appreciate the help guys. I was hesitant about 25mm all round. Looks like 25s front 23s at the back. All hub centric off coarse. Where can I find 23mm spacers?

I dig this What springs you have? Coilovers?

Would love to see how it turns out!

Question came up as I was searching other posts..... Do I need to be trimming stock studs for 20mm spacers? What about 23/25mm do they need any trimming on stock studs? Id really rather not.

 

[sw686blue]

Yes, you would trim the stock studs. If you use the 23/25 mm combo, you will not need to trim anything.
