I think a 7mm would be fine. Here’s mine with 2* camber and a 5mm spacer.

Just to be clear, are you running the ARP studs as well?

Yeah I would like to clarify this point as well. Do you have the stock GT 500 studs in or the ARP studs with a spacer?
I'm still running the stock, base model front hubs & studs with a 5mm spacer. That's what's in the pix. Have been tracking it that way.

I plan to go to a square set up on the GT500, so I bought the CFTP hubs to install, but haven't bought the wheels yet and the CFTP hubs are sitting on the bench.
I installed the longer ARP studs in my GT350 hubs, but didn't use them. Just installed the GT350R hubs on that car instead. So, I had those original GT350 hubs w/ARP studs on the shelf. Figured I'd offer some info to the gang.

OK that’s very helpful. So you think that you could fit a 7 mm spacer on your stock GT500 front hubs?

Yes, I think it will work.
I plan to rotate my front tires tomorrow. I'll try to get a measaurement of stock studs, etc.

I appreciate it very much, thank you

Thanks, what brand of space or are you running?
Just to note, I believe he is running base hubs/studs, which are shorter than the CFTP hubs/studs. That said, I assume the CFTP wheel is thicker than the base at the point of rotor contact, and that’s why the studs are longer on the snack pack.
