1" lower and 1" wheel spacer on front of GT

I'm lowering my front end by an inch with the Roush springs. I also have a set of 1" wheel spacers I'd like to install afterwards. Anyone done a 1" drop with a 1" spacer?

Clearance issues?

Thanks,

They are aftermarket black bullit rims with stock offset and stock Goodrich rubber. I don't forsee any clearance issues, but just wanted to hear from anyone who'd tried this setup before.

Thanks for the good info.

It's a stock replica black bullit.

• Size 18x9
• Bolt Circle 5X4.50
• Offset +24

Factory Goodrich GTA 235/50ZR18 tires.

I have the springs and spacers installed now and the drop is about 7/8" and the tires fit very nicely just inside the fender lip. I'll post a few pics when I get a chance, but the car just looks much more balanced now with 1" drop front/rear and 1" wider stance on all four corners.

I'm likin' it so far...
