[QUOTE="wjfawb0, post: 3221712, member: 11585"] The car has 62,000 miles on it with no uneven tire wear or handling problems. I think the difference in fitment is wheel diameter and backspacing of different wheel manufacturers. If you've ever had a few of these IRSs out of the cars, the tolerances aren't that great on them. Many of the wheel tire combos I have had on the car don't require spacers when sitting on the ground, but I don't like the idea of my sidewall being close to the bolt head or bracket under hard cornering or "airborne" situations. I'm still running spacers though I'm running 275/40-17 tires right now. I don't like the stock look of the car with the fenders sticking out over the tires in the rear. The rear quarters on the 99-04 mustangs have always looked goofy to me anyway, the way they curve in under the car. [/QUOTE]
