Wheel Spacers

[SebastianGomez]

I have a 2015 Ecoboost w/ Performace Pack MT and I really want Wheel Spacers, I just can't find any.

GarageLine.com is supposed be coming out with S550 specific ones very soon. I just checked and don't see them on their website yet though. I had called to inquire about them but ended up buying new wheels instead.

they are the exact same as the ones used for the 2011-2014.

It is the same bolt pattern, however if you get the ones that are thick enough to require studs, the thread on the studs are different so you have to get lug nuts for a 13-14 so you can bolt your wheels up. ( I haven't confirmed this myself but it is what i have seen online)

I have a set of 20mm bolt on adapters on my front wheels, had to get some open end 14mm by 1.5mm lug nuts to hold them on, then used 1/2" by 20 lug nuts I had leftover from past Mustangs to bolt the wheels to them.

Some adapters, such as the Akata brand sold on Ebay, are machined so tight to the 1/2" older spec that the holes are too small for the 14mm lugs on our cars, so be wary.

Newb questions:

Are there any handling issues when using spacers?

If the tires are flush with the outer fender is there a greater risk of paint chipping fom gravel and dirt?

I've seen spacers for the 2015 S550 at American Muscle

It all depends. If you buy good quality spacers and balance them with the tires (anything larger than 10mm), you will most likely have zero handling/vibration issues.

However, anytime you move the wheels closer to the fenders and away from the stock position with the liner, you open yourself up to more debris. This usually isn't an issue unless you have a lot of unfinished roads to deal with.
