    Specifically 98-00? I have 15” American racing wheels with 1.5” wheel spacer and don’t like how much they stick out. Not sure if the rim will clear the brake rotor cover without the spacer so I may need 16” or 17” wheels??

    nice. I just bought the same front shocks and coils. I might have to do 1”-1.5” lift block too since I didn’t buy the rear lift. Right now I have 5100 with 2880 coils set at 0.

    Anyone have 17x8.5 with no wheel spacers and 265/70 tires?? Would love to see what some look like and what offset you’re running!

    I don’t think you need wheel spacers for 17x8.5 you should be good
