Eibach Pro-Spacer
Has anyone come across these things in their travels?
http://eibach.com/cgi-bin/htmlos.exe...39994500011745
They seem like they would be an easy way to increase the stance width of the car without creating any negative side effects. They don't list a specific one for the FC, but they have several which are 5x114.3 bolt pattern. I checked the mustang ones and they have them from 25-45mm thick varying 5mm each step up. They have a hub diameter for the center bore of 70.5mm. I don't know what the thread/stud size for a mustang though. There must be a car with a 5x114.3mm pattern that has a hub diameter that will fit and the same lug thread/size as our cars right?

I've heard from the guy who used to help me work on my Mustang, that wheel spacers have a reputation for falling apart at high speeds.
I didn't want to post this before really cuz its second hand knowlage and I dont know if it applies to Eibach's wheels spacers. :/
He was mentioning it while taking apart a Charger that had some cruddy looking ones on it.

I wheel wheel adapters/spacers and they are awesome, I say coming from Eibach would be even better.. we have good technology and the things really do work, Why do you think so many people advertise them. Mine are very nice, and are a great investment, but this was on my first gen, it kicked the wheels right out to the fender. Very nice..
