Morning gents. Going to be running 18x10 Saleens this season and would love to have them sit flush with the fender or close to it. Should I run a 1in spacer out back or something smaller?

Tires - R888’s 305/35/18
Rolled fenders
IRS low profile bolts

a 1" spacer is alot. you will need extended studs out back to run a spacer. Install the wheels then measure how far it is away from the fender to get your required spacer length.

I'm running 1 inch hubcentric I the rear of mine. 17/9s though, they look great.

Don’t have a problem running extended studs if I have to.
I’ll get them mounted and measured in a few weeks.

I ran 25 mm Eibach spacers on the back of my '99 when I had 17 x 9" wheels (10th anniversaries). A 30 mm spacer would have made the rear more like the front. Just an FYI: if you run 25 mm spacers, the stock studs will stick out past the spacer. Not a problem when running wheels w/pockets between the holes, but the spare tire doesn't have the pockets. When I got a flat on the rear, I had to put a front tire on the back and the spare on the front.
