Spacers for the Prostars?
Im thinking of putting a set of Weld Prostars on my 2002 GT. I know the rears clear but, would i have to run spacers to clear the calipers in the front or is there another way to do this?

That's what I have and still had to grind the calipers a little. You may not have that issue with 99-04

A 7/16 spacer would be perfect on 99-04 w/ stock brakes.
