[QUOTE="randotheking, post: 15422829, member: 169054"] 16 GT PP I want to switch to a squared setup for both Summer and Winter - I don't track this car and I live in the city in the Midwest. After the P Zeros wear out I'll switch to something more economical, but here's my plan until then and it should set me up to save money on tires in the long run. I just need to know, does it work? Buying a set of GT PP takeoffs: Summer Setup Front: 19x9.5 - Pirelli P275/40ZR19 P Zero - 5mm spacer Back: 19x9.5 - Pirelli P275/40ZR19 P Zero - no spacer Winter Setup Front: 19x9 - BRIDGESTONE BLIZZAK LM-32 P245/40R19 98V XL - No spacer Back: 19x9 - BRIDGESTONE BLIZZAK LM-32 P245/40R19 98V XL - No spacer Thoughts? I'm not sure if a 5mm spacer is enough. I've seen conflicting posts on multiple forums stating that the wheels clear. On top of that they mentioned >5mm spacer means it's lug centric instead of hub centric. I'm not sure what that means or why it matters. 5mm spacers [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-WHEEL-HUBCENTRIC-SPACERS-FOR-Ford-5X114-3MM-5MM-THICK-70-5MM-CB-/172314658760?fits=Make%3AFord&hash=item281ec107c8:g:hEgAAOSw6n5XumFX&vxp=mtr[/url] 7mm spacers [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-WHEEL-HUBCENTRIC-SPACERS-FOR-Ford-5X114-3MM-7MM-THICK-70-5MM-CB-/172314658834?hash=item281ec10812:g:vTMAAOSwZVlXumFf&vxp=mtr[/url] 10mm spacers [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-WHEEL-HUBCENTRIC-SPACERS-FOR-Ford-5X114-3MM-10MM-THICK-70-5MM-CB-/172314658861?hash=item281ec1082d:g:MGIAAOSwU-pXumFm&vxp=mtr[/url] Do I need new studs regardless of spacer size?
