I truly don`t think that there are many guys using wheel spacers. Most mustang owners are just getting the right wheel with the right off set for there car...

Using 1.5" spacers is just asking for broken wheel studs and a crashed/wrecked stang

Uhh, I've used them and know plenty of people who have one other cars.

Spacers aren't harmful provided you A) Buy good quality spacers ( I bought Eibach ) and B) Properly mount and torque them.

I had them mounted in the rear to space them. If I hadn't bought a car with roadrash on two of the four stock wheels I would probably have bought two more to flush up front and rear. I like them but purchased new wheels that have enough offset to flush them up enough for my taste. Check American Muscle's website, they have some pics up. That's where I got my Eibachs.
