Is anyone running spacers over 1" spacers on their 6th gen? If so, I'd like to see pics.

I have 1.5" (38mm) Titans sitting on my bench waiting to be installed once Spring ever really gets here. I got the 1.5" so that I would not have to do any stud trimming (or very minimal). My experience with the twist wheels is not a lot of channeling in the back of the wheel to safely accommodate the original studs.

I would love to see pics of anyone running 1.25" or 1.5" to see the look. Wondering if the fronts will stick out too far. Maybe I will try and be the first to post pics.

I run Titan 1.5" spacers with 18x12 et41 wheels up front, but the studs installed into spacers are generally not quality. Hammer them out and use longer studs. MSI sells Mustang studs that work and their lug nuts are high quality too.

I can't see using spacers out back, doesn't make any sense. The only reason to use them is to run a rotatable square setup.

IMO you're nuts to use spacers with built-in studs. It's a bad idea for a performance car and still questionable for normal street use.

Thanks for the reply.

My plan for the spacers is only for bumped-out appearance for street use only.
I prefer the poke look over tucked or even flush. The spacers are far less expensive than a new set of 10/11 inch wide aftermarket wheels/tires.

I ran 1.0" on my 2019 1LT, which looked much better. I never had an issue with them. However, I did not enjoy cutting the studs. I am hoping the 1.5s will be enough to avoid stud trimming.

Looking for any opinions and recommendations on this, especially from owners running the 1.5s.

Cheers!
