Default wheel spacer questions

not enough money to buy rims till december so i was thinking tu put some wheel spacers in the stock 5 spoke gt rims in the rear wheels of couse, i hate the look, i don't know if somebody heve done that before, if yes, what is the perfect size of spacer to make the rear wheels be right with the fender like the ones in the front?

Go with at least a 1.5" spacer. I have 1.25" spacers....not on right now....but they are nice.

I've got 1.25" on my 96 and my tires bottom out on the quarter panel occasionally. The sides of my tires are all chewed up, they're coming off ASAP!!

dont buy those from that site, what a JIP.....thats WAY to much money, look on ebay! but if you are waiting to get rims, WHY BY SPACERS NOW? why not just wait it out, that way you could get it $100-200 sooner!

Ryan

btw go AT LEAST 1 inch, bolt on of course, JEZZ those are $$$$ even the ****ty spacer things at the bottom at like $60, MR gasket sells them for like 12 a pair, not the ones you want tho!

Be sure to buy the type that have studs in them, those old type spacers will make your wheel fall off
