18" mustang bullitt wheels

[marquis_82_withneons]

there is no need for custom ones. i just picked a set of 4 2" off ebay for $111 and some change. if you use common sense, make sure you got a clean flat surface, and torque the lug evenly (skipping every other lug) then youll be fine. i cannot imagine a company making faulty spacers granted that could cause a serious accident and huge problems for them.

[marquis_82_withneons]

You don't need spacers for a backspacing that it less than stock, that would just push the wheels out more. You only need spacers for wheels that have higher than stock back spacing, such as the mentioned Bullitts, which have 6 inch backspacing IIRC

thankyou for that. ive been racking my brain trying to figure out what to do

They must be hubcentric as well.

It wouldn't hurt. I switched from 21mm to 19mm because there was a slight clearance issue while securing the spacer to the axle.
Also, this shop is trying to get your money.

Why r they trying to get my money. The guy that runs the shop is a good friend of my family and he showed me on his computer that they didnt make spacers for my year car. I bought the spacers on my own he just recommended the place to me. He didnt make no money on me from the spacers. He said the spacers on eBay would vibrate and he knows I'm real picky about my car and I don't want no vibration.

I just find it odd because the same spacers for your 2000 also includes all Panthers from, what, 1980? until 2002. And some Jeeps also use the same spacers because a lot of them use the 8.8 rear axles. So there is, in essence, millions of vehicles that would use these spacers.
I find as long as they use T-6064 billet aluminum, there shouldn't be any problem.
I just couldn't justify $325 in spacers.

I feel you bro but with the custom made spacers no vibration this guy is convinced that there will be vibration . Let me mention that this guys deals with mostly high end and high performance car every time I go there there's Porsches bmw m3s I seen a Lamborghini and a ford gt so maybe anyways it's too late already paid for them I asked if I could cancel it and they said it was too late ill kno next time.

[bigsteve305]

All I do know is that there better be no vibration at all even at 100mph+

[marquis_82_withneons]

quick question.. what does hub centric mean?

[marquis_82_withneons]

nevermind.. found it.. and that was a long ass explanation.. glad i didnt make one of you guys explain it hahaha

[SVT98t]

Ya. That's important shizzle too.
I hope they work for you mang!!!

[marquis_82_withneons]

eh... if that description was accurate, the rims on the Merc are lug centric. same as the new ones for the towny

[bigsteve305]

Any suggestion on what to do with the rubbing? Rides fine when I'm alone but if I have 1 or more passengers when I'm on the high way and giver over slopes the car rocks and drops and rubs real hard. My suspension is real loose and smooth should I just roll or cut the fenders or should I upgrade my suspension to make it stiff or should I do both I wanted to drop it a little but I think it's not a good idea now that I have this running issue. Cab u guys give me some suggestions

[sly]

rolling the lip up tight on the fender will probably be the first and possibly last step. the trim may not like it though.

How big are the spacers?
