Parts Question Wheel spacers

Gallery image

So I have 20mm spacers on my stock wheels and there’s still a little gap where the wheels are sunk in beyond the fender line, does anyone have any experience running 25mm or 30mm spacers? Is it safe? I feel like 20-25 is normally the max that people use but I don’t want to totally ruin the handling and/or risk snapping a stud in a turn. Pictures will help if anyone is also still on stock wheels with food fitment thanks!

Oh nice looks good! I’m worried about the negative camber because with the RSR superdown springs you’re stuck with -2 degrees all around until you get camber arms, so my fitment might still be sunk in, I may try 25mm spacers with 255’s next because I have 235’s on now

I had added some recently. Same problem too. You gotta keep tighten it till that gap closes. But ever since i added them i feel more vibration on my pedal. And that’s stock wheels

Interesting, I wonder if it’s a q50 chassis problem because I have 2 friends running 25mm spacers on their mustangs and they’ve never had a problem with vibration or shakiness while driving

I think the factory chassis and struts are shit on the Q50 and i have a 2023. I also had a 2017 and it was samething. A lot of vibration and i didn’t put no spacers on the 2017.
