As far as i know, you dont need spacers for stang wheels. I run '97 cobra wheels just fine with no spacers, and with 235's up in front. And let me tell you, YOU CANT fit anything bigger in the front wells with stock fenders.
I have also tried Cobra R wheels on my car and those stick out because they are wider, just like the ones you have found here. They stick out so far that you cannot possiably run them on the front without damaging your fenders on bumps. You may be able to run these in the rear with 255's, even then, you may have to push back the heat shield over the muffler. IF your tires stick out in the rear, it will hit on bumps and even hard acceleration.
Normal v8 stang wheel are 17x8
a lot of aftermarket stang wheels are 17x9 or larger.
BTW i have a stock suspension.

MAKE SURE, if ur tire is close to your exhaust shield, to bend that back.
I did not notice this.
And my 255's had a gouge into the sidewall because of this.
They were like $200+ per tire.
It sucked.
