Yes, I bit the bullet and finally ordered the wheel spacers I've been thinking about forever. They're the bolt-on type, 1.00" in thickness, for the rear wheels...all together 90 Bones, shipped. I just couldn't stand the dorky "wheels tucked in" stance from the rear anymore. They are coming out of Indy, from these guys http://www.adaptitusa.com/ but I doubt they'll be put on for a few weeks until I finish up school for the semester. I've got my Aweb RSTB waiting to go too, so I'll throw down a "mod combo" when I get time. lol

 

I'll update when I get them on. For now, here's a pic of my dorky rear stance from a few weeks ago...

 

BTW, the shitty broken power antenna in this pic has since been replaced with a stock regular one...Less broken parts FTMFW!

I'm running 1.5 spacers on the rear. Theyre for my 19"s, but I just left them on when I put the stockers on, so I wont lose them

 

And no probs? I've seen mustang guys go with much more aggressive spacers on the rear drive wheels, so I wouldn't think these will be to hard on anything. All they have to to is go around and around, besides braking forces...whatever the hell that amounts to with those wonderful 1st-gen rear discs...lmao

Depending on the rims, should look good.

 

 

As long as it's not like the 80's cars with the rear rims sticking out 4 inches past the front and with lifted rear ends. Those are just :rolleyes:

been running them since I first put the 19"s on two summers ago, no problems at all :dunno: don't know what problems anyone might be worried about, but they've done the job perfectly

Sweet, sounds good.

Well, it certainly will still look like an eighties car...there's really no way around that when your wheels are the same NASA white as the body. Those are staying for the time being. A two inch overall wider stance shouldn't make it look ghetto though.

Yes, no ghetto look please.

 

 

 

I'm just hoping that if the Z becomes my car, I can find some rims that look decent on it.

 

 

I'm too picky with rims....
