18" mustang bullitt wheels

Damn I think if I cut the fenders it may not do anything the place I had put my wheels on say it's not rubbing. I think the tires are hitting the wheel wield or the inside of my fender. When my car bounces it drops so low it hits the inside of my fender above the wheel. My suspension bounces a lot think I need new read shocks? What can I go to stop this loud rubbing or grinding noise? Cani upgrade my suspension give it a more stiffer or sporty ride

police springs and shocks... will raise the ride height about an inch and make it stiffer. Do that front and rear to keep it even.

may just need the shocks. I'd start there and see how that works before pulling springs.

+ 1 on the above. I would not be cutting fenders unless last resort. I would also have your suspension inspected by a couple of shops. That way you will know if anything needs replacing before the alignment.

Damn I really don't want to raise my car my car looks nice it looks low and I was even thinking of lowering it. You don't think if I just need to replace my rear shocks with standard ones it won't help.

Also my boy has a p71 same year as mine it is raised a inch higher but his bounces and jumps just as bad as mine I do to know if he needs new shocks to or if that's just how these car suspension is?

I have the exact same wheels on an 02 GM, with the same spacers ( 2" and 1.5") and nothing rubs no matter how it's loaded down.
You may have something else going on that needs to be checked out.

stock police should not bounce for crap. your buddy probably needs new shocks. You may also need suspension bushings all around depending on how beat the car is.

yeah uh you don't have to pay $325 for spacers that don't vibrate. i paid like $120 for some off eBay and in six years of constant and hard use they've never vibrated... if you can afford to drop that kind of quiche without educating yourself first then i guess that's good for you, but i shop around and see what else there is available and i never believe the guy behind the counter whether he's my buddy or not.


seriously i would've sold you those spacers for so much less than $325 lol

Likewise.

I ran Ebay spacers for years, and still do.

Mike used to autocross his car, and beat the hell out of it with Ebay spacers.
