Wheel Spacers

1970Custom · Apr 14, 2009

So I finally threw my 16x8 American Racing wheels on the '71 (I've had them for close to seven years if not longer) and the back wheels are a bit too narrow compared to the front.

What company out there makes the best spacers? I'm only bringing them out an inch and a half MAX...

Not sure about bolt patterns but if I remember right AE wheel makes a few. I had some on the dually to clear the rear duals.

Yeah, looks better!

I have 16x7" with 235/85-16E's on my '75.

16" wheels is what the engineers had in mind but the
bean counters had the final word? :/

What's your "ride height"?

4+1/4" might be a little too much? :/
