I'm dropping my car 2" soon but keeping with the stock GT wheels. Can I put spacers on to stick them out? Anyone got any pics? Also how big of a spacer can I do? |

Ive worked out for my stock 7.5" wide wheels with 225 tyres, the maximum is 25mm in the rear and 20mm up front. this may still require rolling of the inner lip
this combined with my stock offset of ET45. -------------------- Mike W

With 205's you may have another 10mm to play with more than i will, if running 215's then only up to 5mm more than i do.
Whatthe talks about his spacer and hella flush issues in his thread, I think with stock 7th gens. -------------------- Mike W

That looks good. What size spacer is that? What else needs to be done with the spacers, longer studs? |

Nice!! Thats what I have on mine as well for about 6months now. Had to get a different acorn nuts that are a tad longer though( 0.8inch length). The ones that came with the spacers have the tendency to get rounded easily if you are not careful with tightening and removing them. Found out the hard way.
