Spacers! Anyone?

[francisco511]

I didn't put the fronts on yet because I'm not sure how or if they would affect handling.

So I haven't made up my mind about putting them in.

Interesting....

I'm guessing the factory wheels have recesses where the wheel meets the hub to allow the studs to poke?

25mm front , 5mm rear. Slight rub on front drivers side during hard bump or dip in the road. Nothing major. Fulll lock turns are no issue.

Which spacers did you get?

Car is lowered with Eibach Pro Kit for the ecoboost. about a 1" drop all around.

This looks perfect IMHO. Did you have to use longer studs?

 

[Zakspeed]

They are bolt on style so no need for longer studs. Factory wheels have pockets on back so no need to cut the factory studs.

They are $245 for a set of 4.

This is great!

Do you have a picture of the inside of the stock 20" wheels? Some are saying it does not have pockets to accomodate the hub studs.

$245? Jesus. Talk about rape.

Inside picture of factory 20" wheel.

We are working on a set of 20mm.

These are made specifically for the mustang hub size so they are hub centered not just lug centric. If or when H&R releases a set they will be close to $300 for a set of 4. Be cautious of the cheap ones a lot of them are cast aluminium which is a no no for wheel spacers because they will crack.

What is the hub/bore size? Is it an aluminum/magnesium alloy? Will it also come anodized in different colors that would be cool. Will it come in different sizes 25/30mm, 1 inch/1.25 inch? Sorry for all the questions I am just really interested in getting one.

 

[Zakspeed]

Bore 2.780" or 70.6mm
Hub 2.775" or 70.5m
Current material 6061-T6 round bar would like to do 7075 but probably too expensive for some
Anodized in clear, black, red, or blue
20mm and 25mm
Dorman grade 10.9 studs
Gorilla lug nuts

Really? The raw material is about $130, the studs are $30, then you need to pay someone to make a cad drawing from your on car measurements, generate a CAM file, upload it, figure out what tools you need to load in the machine, verify the feed rates, make one, test fit it, finalize it and make a batch, send them to anodize, assemble, package and process the order. Then sit on them and wait for orders to recoup your investment and eventually make a profit in hopefully the third batch. So yeah, not feeling ya on the "Rape" part :tsk:

You want them in 7075 material your raw material cost just crossed the $270 barrier.

Nice. How much would it be for a 7075 with 25mm anodized black?
