Wide tires?

Wide tires?
They will look the same unless you are under the car from the back but in your opinion are wheel spacers gay? Does that ruin the mustang name and make me a ricer? Should i get wheel spacers or just get fatter wheels in the rear? Thanks

Spacers should NOT be taken, or rather "installed" lightly
In general, I am not a fan of spacers, but DO have an exception. I run a set of 1/2" spacers, but only because I could not find an 11" wheel in a Saleen style. I had mine widened after I confirmed proper clearance to add that 1/2". I also installed longer/stronger studs to accomodate the thickness of them.
One is ALWAYS better off to purchase the wheel width one would like, rather than "attempt" to gain the desired look via spacers. Take a look in Choosing a new tire thread and find the "I want fat meats" section. I have a paragraph in there on how to cetermine clearance for spacers and/or wider wheels.
No... spacers do not make a Mustang "rice" nor should you care what anyone else thinks
