Hello everyone. Recently purchased my first terminator (but have had several other mustangs) and its fairly heavily modified. It has a SRA from a SN95. I was told they did that since its a bit shorter and you can get a bit more tire under it. Yesterday I noticed that there are some large spacers in it to allow it to run a 315 tire. Its great having that much tire, but its rubbing on the inside of the driver side. I would prefer to not run spacers as well.

Im assuming I'm not the first to ask the question, but I also have searched quite a bit and am not finding anything. What is to appropriate size wheel/backspacing to run with that axel in a terminator?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks guys. The top down pic is TrueForged wheels with 6.25" backspacing and the other is from Champion Wheels (drag setup). I was trying to confirm if that was 6.25" but it might be 6.5". I'm almost positive 6.5" is fine.

Just want to clarify, you are not running any spacers, right?

I run a 6 1/2 backspace on my drag setup(10in wheel). Puts the tire pretty close to the inside, but it clears with no spacers. SN95 rear end for me.

Well I think my drag setup is 6.25" bs. I've been trying to look on Champion Wheels website and I just found out they're out of business. I guess the owner passed away unexpectedly over the summer....sad stuff. Sorry off topic, but just crazy...
