Spacer recomendation

[stang77]

I recently installed my Steeda Progressive springs. Currently I'm still using my factory 18" wheels. The look of the car is good but the wheels could be a little less tucked in. What size spacer should I use for the front and rear?

I believe it's 23mm in the front. 25mm in the rear for optimum set up.

I'm running 25mm front and rear and it's OK for me. (Gift from my brother) I did install very small / lower profile mud flaps on the front....Because the fronts will kick rocks to the rear rocker panels and upper wheel well. With 23mm in the front you "may" be ok. I have a black car so the mud flaps blended well with the car

I have clear bra in the front already but I ended up adding the clear bra film to the side rocker panels and I had a custom piece made for the upper wheel well on both sides.

I have to say the stance is much better with the spacers. I'm running 19's OEM Perf pack rims so with 18's you may not need the clear bra on the sides. However if you decide to upgrade rims with spacers then you may need it.

Thanks. I plan on doing wheels later. I just wanted something in the mean time. Do you have a picture of your setup? My car is magnetic gray.

I still have the 19" EB PP wheels, Steeda Progrressive springs and have 25mm spacers in front and rear, no rubs, no worries.

Ecoboost 18" Premium package wheels, 1" all around (25mm). make sure you get hub-centric adapters!

Do you guys use longer studs with these spacers ? Or do the spacers have their own ?

The ones I use have their own. Use blue locktite and torque to spec before putting the wheels on.

1" will have their own lugs, they are technically adapters.

Again, be sure to get hub-centric style spacer / adapters and all should be well.

Torque the spacer ---> car at 150 ft lbs.

Ask the spacer manufacturer what torque spec to use wheel ---> spacer.
