Close ups With 1.00" Spacers

Calipers are easier to clean with the extra clearance

Have you had any issues with rocks chipping your paint?

If I had to put splash guards I like the look of these but I don’t even know if they’d provide enough protection as they’re not very wide https://www.americanmuscle.com/mp-concepts-gt350-style-rear-bumper-winglets-1517.html

None at all, 35,000 miles running these spacers

I couldn't figure out how to share them here. I just installed front and back , from Steeda. 95 for the set. And I like them.

So am I ok doing the 1 inch spacers just in the back?

Sure. They'll offset really to the outside, not sticking out a ton, it's very subjective.

That being said, I think the front to rear offset difference will look a bit weird.

It kicks up a good bit more on the sides, I mean, look at the effective offsets, of course it does, now whether that's mud you can just wash off, or more permanent damage, pure luck.

Heck, even my MMR 20" setup which fits notably more tighter vs. PP wheels with 25mm spacers kicks up more. FWIW, I'm running Rokblokz front and rear splash guards (and they're outstanding).

Unless you tilt them inward like some punk Civic ricer, your tire with bang into the fender and cut into the tire or damage the fender itself.

They won't hit the fenders unless the US cars have softer springs. Bu they WILL cause you paint damage by flicking up stones onto your gleaming paintwork. Go for 20mm, they will be flush with your fenders and cause less damage to paint. Either way, 25mm or 20mm, you really want to be putting stone guards on. This one had 20mm spacers....

And stone guards from Rokblokz

If 20mm will clear the wheel lug pockets (with Bullit wheels) that would be a much better (IMO) fitment. Like I said, I found the 23mm to be pretty close, another 3mm would've been perfect (talking the rear).

You think the guards I linked will give enough protection?

Hard to say, they're on the smaller side. The main thing with splash guards is the mounting design, I had some different ones on my '16, but used the RokBlokz on my '19 and they're fantastic. Mine are almost a year old, they still look new, and the mounting design was slick. No 3M/tape, just fasteners, clips, I mean, they're only $99 for front and rear, so it's not a bunch of extra cost.

I'm kind of like, if you're going to do anything at all, make it really count.

I wonder if they could only sell me the rear ones, can u send some more pics of them?

Ive been running 25mm spacers front & rear for 35,000 miles including many gravel & dirt roads & have had No paint damage so far, granted on dirt roads i go slow but any guard that extends out would give you some reassurance & protection

They sell the fronts separate or the full set on Amazon:

(Lots of pics on Amazon too)

But it couldn't hurt to contact them about the rear only (FWIW, even direct, they only show front/rear or front only).
