Wheel spacers

[SurgStang51]

I have a 2017 PP1. From what I've found you'll want to go 25mm/1" up front with 255 and 23mm in rear with 275 to have no poke. 20mm in rear with 285 would probably get you right where you want to be

Cool sounds good. You'd recommend the same for a car that's lowered an inch as well? Any recommendations on brand? Eibach?

On my car 20mm spacers didn't fit the PP1 wheels but 25mm do fit. The studs hit the wheel inside the recess before seating.

This is with a 1/4" spacer in the rear.

these 3 pics are with 1/4" spacer (6-7mm) in the rear?

that looks pretty nice to me, much better than poke..

Yes, 1/4" out back in all of those pics. I do have the 1" front spacers on it as well.

What lowering springs did you use? Stance is perfect and your wheels are flush. Good job!

These are Steeda front coilovers and Steeda rear drag springs with 1/3rd of a coil cut off.

That's a unique setup.

That's a unique setup.

It's primarily a strip setup but I have both street and strip big/little setups.

With drag wheels...17" wheels all around.

And this is with 15" rear wheels...

So if the 20mm spacers DON'T fit the 2018 GT PP1 will 25mm spacers fit with 285mm tires in the rear? Would the tires push out a lot past the fender? Would 30mm up front (about 1.1 inches) be too much with a 255 tire?

Correct, 20mm spacers didn't fit my PP1 wheels with stock studs.

The 25mm spacers fir. How much they push out the tire and it being OK is up to you. Ride height and camber settings do effect how they sit so YMMV on the spacers a bit.

25mm up front is the better choice I beleive.

Cool. How did the 1/4" spacer work? Did you have to cut down the studs for that as well?

No, 1/4" spacers just sandwich between the wheel and brake rotor.
