PP1 Rear Wheels 9.5 on front

[86pagt]

I’m a fan of the PP1 wheels but want the squared look....Looking for pictures and experience on running the rear 9.5 with 275/40s on the front...
Daily driver won’t see the track just spirited driving.
I currently have 25mm spacers on all 4 corners and lowered on BMR min drop. Looking at the Voxx replicas from CJs and continue to look all over for OEM rears. Tomorrow I might just throw them on the front and see how it goes but any experience and pictures are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance..

I've done this on two S550 Mustangs now. The rear 19x9.5 PP wheels fit fine on the front with a 5mm spacer. My '15 had BMR handling springs and no issues.

Thanks for the info... any pictures by chance?

No pics on me, I will see if I can post some this evening. But there is not much difference in looks. The 19x9.5 with 275/40/19 fill the front wheel well out a little more is all.

Ok that’s just the news I needed... I think I’m going to throw mine on the front and check it out with the 25mm spacer see what it looks like but most likely will go 5. thanks for the information

5mm is just the minimum needed to not hit things - it will look like the 9.0 front does without spacers. It's simple math.

If you're running the 9.0et45 with 25mm spacer for 'the look', you have an effective 9.0et20. If we normalize that to 9.5 width it's 9.5et26. The rear is 9.5et53, with 25mm spacer it's 9.5et28 or a teenie bit recessed from what your current front wheel looks like.

Yes understand that part but the height of the 275/40 compared to the 255 in relation to fender. Thanks

275/40 work all day long up front at rational offsets. Yours *might* be a problem.

I went square 275/40 PP1's with 25mm spacers all around and with a 1.0" drop the front and .75" rear. The tires would rub going into driveways. So I went 23mm and it made it a perfect fit. I have sense wetnt full aftermarket with 285/305 setup. But if I ever go back to the pp1 set up I would go with the 23mm spacers with 285/35 tires. The 285's are almost the same dia as the 255/40's
