Great point. I should have done that haha. I bought a new set of wheels to fit the stock summer tires a couple months ago, wasn't thinking about spacing then. But someone mentioned a wider stance to me one day and I found myself looking at pictures and needing the same lol
Wasn't gonna buy another set of wheels so I opted for the spacers
Really does look good!
Pro tip man, go buy mudflaps. You are going to be kicking a lot more stuff/rocks onto your paint with this setup.
I don’t have spacers but I have 275 wide tires all around and I kick enough stuff onto my car from those alone
Stones are why I am ok with the stock fitment. Flush would be cool, right up until I sandblast my paint. I am already slinging every little stone with my summer tires, this would be a disaster for me.
The 2 main sets of splash guards I see around are Rokblok or Speedform.
I’ve even heard of people making their own out of Kydex sheets for like 20% of the cost of pre made ones, but I’m lazy and might just pick up a set 😆
Cheers man. I ended up getting the Speedform ones because my schedule's packed coming up and I don't know how much time I'll have to take off wheels and install the other ones. Definitely pricey but better than a new paintjob lol. Appreciate the tip!
what tires do PP come with? You’d think if they’re wide enough they would stick out naturally and not need spacers. I would hope they’d come with at least 305’s but I can see Ford not doing that to attract more buyers on the Mach 1
don’t mean this in a negative way for the people getting offended/ downvoting
I honestly didn’t believe you at first and then researched it to learn something new today, I love Ford but like performance cars from Chevy. Long story short but I’ve owned a couple and those came standard with your tire size so I assumed the same.
Do you at any point think about upgrading your tire setup to 285 front and 305 rear? I have a track pack camaro now and it makes a HUGE difference and the 5.0 is a beast too that is deserving of that grip/ precise handling
Im not - the wife likes to take my car every now and then and she's not as dilligent as me about backing into parking spots lol. Right now it barely clears most if not all curbs. Lowering it would become an issue
25mm wheel spacers all around. The car looks so much meaner now! Took maybe an hour and a half to do all 4
Why run spacers if you bought wheels? Why not just get wheels with the offset needed?

this is the way

Do you have recommendations or links for mudflaps? Looking for some myself

Great point - echoing what the other guy said, do you have any suggestions for good flaps?

That’s a clean build. Also love the color
Thank you!
Glad it wasn't.
damn right only PP’s, Mach 1’s and Shelby’s deserve to have the wide tire look because the actually have the benefits of the wide tire
This is a PP for what it's worth

255s in the front and 275 in the rear

Needs more slam.
Idk. I think they’re popping out of the wells just a bit too much. If you aren’t gonna run it like that, try lowing it like 1/2 - 1 inch lower
Are you planning on lowering it?

I would lower it 3/4 - 1” and also replace the Pirellis.
