I want a pair of rear wheel spacers (with the lugs installed) to use with the factory wheels, no wider than 1 inch ...some of these won't fit stock wheels, I'm told. Which ones will, and who has the best quality? Do the ones from American Muscle fit...or Eibachs?
thanks!!

The 1" (25mm) hub-centric spacers I got from Maximum Motorsports years ago fit perfectly with my stock 2002 bullitt-type wheels. I did not have to cut anything.

I'm guessing that these wheel spacers don't work (without cutting) with stock pony wheels or cobra wheels because those wheels don't have a dished-out (or hollowed-out) shape on the backside of the spokes, like the bullitt-type wheels have.

Do you have any pictures with the spacers on? I'm thinking about getting some.

These are 1.5 inch spacers on my car. Made a huge difference in looks, not only from behind, but it looks more aggressive from any angle now too.

Do yourself favor and upgrade to hardened studs on the rear when you do the spacers.

$20 is well worth the extra insurance
