Not that hard, really. I'm running 11.5" all 4 corners with 325s. Nothing but the proper offset and spacers plus alignment.
How much camber does it take?

I run a 305 square setup with ARP studs up front and a 25mm spacer. Definitely need open lug nuts and no need to run the spacers with stock wheels.

Apex 19x11.5 square et56 back spacing with 31mm op front spacer and op mustang gt4 studs all around.

fronts were super easy to do, about 30min with the stud installer from amazon $20. REARS sucked
Received the front gt4 hubs but the back are still out of stock.

I am getting ready to order rims and was just curious if there was a specific reason you went with 11.5" instead of 11"? The 11" rims are currently not on sale but the 11.5" are (about a $500 difference right now). was the 11.5 just for larger contact patch?

From what apex shows the 11” needs a 25mm spacer and 11.5” needs a 31mm spacer but I cannot find either of those size spacers in stock anywhere which is very frustrating.

What rims are you running? Do you just use the open lugs from OPM that came with the hubs or ARP studs with your stock rims when and if you run them?

I use 35mm spacers from OPR here - they're in stock and work perfectly with my 11.5" wheels. They offer 31mm as well, but show out of stock.

I use the wider wheels for more contact patch, yes. I've been tracking them with 325mm tires and am quite happy with the combo.

What camber plates are you running?

I'm using Steeda - wanted to keep a little rubber in it for NVH, but went back and forth between that and Vorshlag. I'm also using Steeda camber bolts. In-season I am staying at -3* up front and off-season more like -2*.

wider rim more options. I was surprised how perfect the goodyear f1 3r 305 fit on the 11.5’s.

im using 31mm spacer up front
