Suspension and rubbing spacers

[EcoBeast64]

I have a 2015 Mustang Ecobeast And I recently purchased some Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs without knowing what size spacers I had in the car. I bought my car with them already and just last night saw that they are 1” cayote spacers all around. I have the premium 19x9 ebony black rims and 255 45r tires all around. I’ve heard that there would be rubbing if I did not have 20mm-23mm custom spacers. I figure that since I have smaller tires than most of the posts I’ve seen that it shouldn’t be a problem? Anybody have the same set up with no problems?

They all end up with about the same fitment because the offset changes for the different wheel setups. It will probably be a close fit but doubt you'll have any serious rubbing along the fender.

Thanks for the input, I’ll prolly try and install them soon, I did reach out to see if I could return them just Incase and they told me they could switch them for the Eibach pro kit but I’d have to pay shipping both ways. But I’ve heard bad reviews on those So I rather not do that.

You'll be fine but who the hell put 255/45-19 tires on those wheels? Should be 255/40. 27" overall diameter recommended. Or very close to it.

Yes my bad it is 255/40, I just purchased my car 3 months ago and so I’m starting to change a lot of things so far on it. So I’m kinda new still to the mod game.

......I’m kinda new still to the mod game.

My experience has been when you "mod" one thing, when you do changes to "fix" or "improve" something, you create other related, new things that need fixing or improving.

I did a complete suspension, and it developed a nasty clunk in the rear that couldn't be found. I did a CAI (along with a tune) and my IATs rose, and the engine ran like crap. Switching back to the stock CAI smoothed everything out, and lowered my IATs.

About the best mod was a canned tune that was safe. Just enough increase in throttle response to liven things up.

With my 2019, I'm leaving it stock.

Well I am slowly modding my Mustang, but I do read into everything. So far I’ve got a flow master thunder cat back exhaust, a Airaid tube with stock air box and kn performance filter with air resonator delete cap for best results as a CAI, Turbosmart kompact dual BoV, now I’m doing lowering springs. I do have a list of items I want to get before a tune. Slowly but surly I’ll get where I want to be with it. Ive only had it a few months and I’m surprised my wife hasn’t killed me yet for spending what I have so far on it lol.
