Spacer thickness help - 18x10 with 305s

[Competition Orange]

I'll mic em when I get home. I suspect they are right there.

Buddy brought his calipers over and couldn't get them to work due to the size of the caliper.

I'm going to try to contact the MFG.

The wheel wouldn't fit over the brake caliper? It's the GTPP caliper, right? That's strange.

No, the measurement caliper. I was trying to find out the hub bore.

I totally forgot to get that for you, my bad. I'm making an alert on my phone to measure them as soon as I get home this afternoon. The wheels are literally 3 FT from my car. ;)

Not a problem, I appreciate the help. Ours were too long to work.

I'd take a gander at 10 mm clearing, just. 15 will be safe. Obviously you need the longer studs.

I ordered 15mm from Tim at OPMustang, should be here tomorrow. More to come, might test fit with my 2, 5mm stacked tonight.

The hub is 70.75mm on my wheels.

Much appreciated.

15mm worked well. No rub lock to lock. Wheels were hub centric too!

Bumping this.

I'm trying to decide if I should stick with the 305 680 18 or try the 295 680 18 dh. Amazingly, the 295 is 0.2" taller at 27.1 vs 26.9 but maybe more importantly is 0.6" narrower on both tread width (10.8 vs 11.4) and section width (11.4 vs 12.0).

Thoughts on which would have less fender arch rubbing? I'm going to try [MENTION=20846]ddozier[/MENTION] fender spacer technique and I've added konis and steeda sways so I think I'd be fine with the 305s still, but want to place my order soon ;)

If you're running camber bolts, you're going to have less clearance than the typical guy running 305s on a 10" wheel. YMMV.

I'm not running into strut clearance, I'm running into fender arch, or outer (inner portion) fender rub. More camber will only HELP that.
