i have bullitts with pirelli 235's off an 05-07. the fronts rubbed a little and the backs looked like crap because they were sooo tucked in. I got 5/8" non-hubcentric wheel spacers for the front (temporary until i get smaller tires up there) and 1.25" hubcentric spacers in the back. no more rubbing up front and the back looks 100% better. the stance looks perfect. My eibach pro kit will be here tomorrow and i am installing it this weekend, so i think it will look tight after that. the first two are before and the last three are after. on a side note, i got a distributor off ebay for $30 for my GT. it started on the first try today after sitting for two months. you can see a sliver of the green gt on the left in one of the pics :

The spacers make it look 100% better, just be sure to go back, torque them after about 60 miles and then check them everyonce and a while. Now you have a couple sets of lugs to think about its not a bad idea to make sure the hubcentric spacers are good and tight on there, would't want to loose a wheel.

that would not be cool if i lost a wheel. i was thinking about how i would react to that if it happened.

'i wanted my car to look good, so i put spacers on the front that shorten my lug studs and it snapped off.'  that would be real cool..

i will definately keep an eye on them..thanks..
