Not to mention the incorrect offset and wrong centercaps. Want me to keep going with this? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> <br /><br />Edit: to answer your question...if it is a 90 and older, it would be best to run at least a 1/4" spacer on the front. Reason for this is simple: the turning radius on the 85-90 models is tighter, causing the wheel to rub on the framerail w/o spacers. On the 91 and ups, no need for it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ April 14, 2005, 06:39 PM: Message edited by: JohnB ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>89point</b> <br /><small>Member # 5412</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,3,14,19,10,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> na no need to go on thanks though yea knew they were the wrong caps but didnt know size and 4 or 5 lug thats why i asked thats what this forum is all about you dont know you ask and find out thanks guys <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>FiftyMan302</b> <br /><small>Member # 3801</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,3,14,21,6,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> thanks for the info guys:) <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
