Getting ready to order these, what size spacer does everyone run in the front? I don't really want to use a spacer in the back but if it cuts down on a lot of grinding I will. Do the rears stick out bad with a spacer?

Summit part # for the spacers and/or the lugnuts?

Thanks

Yeah they will stick out in the back with a spacer. You could always narrow the rear $$$

Its in the post but here ya go... Hoosier QTP 28 x 11.5 x 15

No BFH mod, or fender lip problems, it is close but they fit. I had HAL's on all the way around. Stock ride height in the rear, but i set the front down some with the HAL's Spacers are no problem to run, I ran this setup on the street all the time. You just can't use spacers with stock studs, dont even try. Get yourself the longer ARP's.

Didn't see it there but thanks. Looks like I'll be getting the 28" QTPs instead of the 27s I just about ordered today

Not sure the lengths they make in the 1/2-20, but in the 12mm 1.5 they make a 2.5'' and a 3.25'' I used the longer ones with the Prostars. I would say something that is at least 3'' depending on how thick the wheels are you get.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. That was my old one, I would like to prolly do something like that to my red one, but not sure yet. To answer the questions though, they do fit, it can be done. It just takes a little work and the right parts to do it right/safe.
