Sorry, another wheel spacer question.
Posted this on the 2nd Gen forum and figured I should put it here too. This is for a S5 non-turbo.
Currently I got 17x8's w/bolt-on spacers that give me offsets of 35 front and 21 rear. I want to push the front out a little more and found these.

(the MM Wheel Spacers)
I've read that the non-hubcentric spacers are a bad idea and was wondering if anyone has experience or input on these hubcentric ones. They're made for 94-04 Mustangs, so am I correct in assuming they will fit. I was considering the 1/4" ones which should give me an offset of about 29 up front.
Any drawbacks or possible problems w/having bolt-on AND MM spacers at the same time?
Thanks,
JT

To be hubcentric you must have the same centerbore diameter on the spacer as on the hub. I have no idea if the centerbore of a Mustang and an FC are the same but I doubt it. If the centerbores are not the same then those spacers will not be hubcentric.
