Default cup2 wheels and spacer??



these are 2 of the cup2's im repainting black with a silver lip, i just primed these wheels and will be putting on the car within the next few weeks, does anyone know what spacer to run exactly i have heard 1 inch up front with 1.5 inch out back, i want the wheels to come out to close to the fender without rubbing as the car will be lowerd, also anyone have some for sale local to ct, thanks a bunch tom

the fronts are 7 and the backs are 9 offset 55 i believe, i am planning on running 245 40 17 and 215 45 17 in front,

You want a 255/40-17, trust me on this one. I have Cup 1's same offset, and I went with the 245/40's on my 84. Looks dorky, and there's plenty of room. I think I went 205/40 on the front as well, mega dorky, football fields' worth of fender gap. Handles awesome though.

Where in CT, btw? If interested in making a trip to RI, I can show you how they'll look on the car. I think I have 1" adapters (with their own studs) all around, would have to check.

rhode island isnt bad at all, i live in north east ct, i think 245, cause i wanted to run a bigger spacer out back then the tire would fill i would assume, plus the car will be pretty low but id like to come see
