Question will 25mm spacers on the rear cause rubbing on a 1" lowered pp1 wheel ?

It shouldn't, lots of people with that combination.

Thanks. I have 20 mm on my pp1 mustang. However a friend of mine wants 25mm due to the way the fronts fit with the 25 mm. So I told him I would check

Hahaha, now he wants me to check where to get 23mm spacer. And yes i did tell him to join this forum, but I don't think he even has a computer. I'm old but he is old and old school

i just did 23mm front and 20mm rear with pp rims and it looks great.. i did get my 23mm from motorsports-tech, and there high craftsmanship well worth the money and wait little over 2 weeks to get them as there made to order.

to get the 20mm to fit i just drilled the rim pockets 3/32s of a inch with a 9/16s drill bit easy peezy

glad i did 20mm in the rear fit is perfect and no poke

Camber settings will play a good part of rubbing and poking. Keep that in mind.

I developed a crack in one of my cheap spacers and ordered and received a set of spacer from motortech. I had 20mm all around. I went wider this time. I went with 25mm in the front and 23mm in the rear. Now I see why everyone likes this set up it looks perfect. Here are a few pics.

I crack up every time I see the whole 23 mm spacer thing, versus the much more readily available (and much less expensive) 25 mm spacers. Seriously, 2mm is roughly the thickness of a quarter. Nobody will notice that.

If it's a quality issue then sure spend 3x as much, but especially if lowered the negative camber gain will tip the top edge of the tire in a lot more than 2mm.

That looks amazing. I need to do this. Stop spending my money. haha.
