Default 96 Gt vert 1 inch wheel spacers stock wheels

Ive searched the forums and cant find any pics of any 94-98 cars with 1 inch wheel spacers or actually wheel adaters which are safer. I'm tight on cash for now but plan on a set of anthracite bullets in 17x8 for the front with stock 245's and 17x9 for the rear with 275/40/17. For now I just hate the look of the tucked in rear stockers. I've run 17x9's before on my 98 Gt and my 04 gt and IMO the front wheels look crappy with 17x9's on a 245. The tire has no bulge and looks curved in plus the front wheel sticks out too far for my taste since the 8 inch rim already has it flush with the fender. When I upped to 275/40/17's all around on the 17x9's on those two cars(same wheels just on different cars) the front end grabbed every rut in the roadway and I had to fight the steering wheel more so I'm going with 17x8's and 245/45 for the front. Anyway has anyone tried the 1 inch wheel adapters/spacers on a 94-98 car and got any pics? I know its not going to give me what I'll get when i do go 17x9 and 275/40 in the rear but for the next 3 or 4 months until money frees up a bit I'm looking for a bandaid. thanks.

As long as they're hubcentric and relocat the studs you'll be fine for safety although, hopefully, you wont be trying to break any track and speed records.



I didn't even know they were there till I bought new wheels. (My first SN)
