The 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers are designed to improve the handling and performance. By increasing the track width, the contact points of tires are expanded, which results in more stability and smoothness. This also improves the rollover resistance. Besides, wheel spacers allow you to install performance wheels and tires.
Adding 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers will prevent your wheels from most potential rubbing issues. In most cases, using perfect-size wheel spacers can get your wheels flush with the fenders. As long as you install them properly, spacers should not cause any uneven tire wear. In this blog, we will delve into the top 5 factors of good wheel spacers to help you avoid costly mistakes.
5 Steps to Choose the Best 2017 Mustang GT Wheel Spacers
Thickness:
- 15mm to 25mm: Starts to deliver noticeable stance changes and improved stability.
- 30mm to 35mm: Offers a noticeable stance difference and enhances ride quality.
- 40mm to 45mm: Makes your car look more powerful and boosts the handling.
- 50mm: Allows you to fit a wide-body kit while keeping the stock wheels.
Bolt Pattern (PCD):
Figuring out the correct bolt patterns (PCDs) of the vehicle and the wheels is the first thing when researching and shopping for 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers. For example, the Mustang S550 (2015-2023): PCD=5×114.3mm, CB=70.5mm, Thread=M14x1.5mm.
Check Wheel Offset:
Determine your current wheel offset and calculate the difference from the desired offset. Generally, a 25mm wheel spacer will reduce about 25mm offset.
Quality Material:
Not all 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers are created equal. Always choose high-quality wheel spacers that are made of forged aluminum alloy. Those forged rim spacers provide superior strength and rust resistance.
Consider Usage:
For daily driving, the 6061-T6 spacers are usually sufficient, while performance driving may require stronger 7075-T6 spacers to undertake more stress.
What Makes BONOSS 2017 Mustang GT Wheel Spacers the Best Choice?
Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets BONOSS apart from other spacers manufacturers. All BONOSS forged active cooling 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers are built strictly to meet international standards. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Better Performance
With the same price as most rim spacers, BONOSS forged active cooling 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers come with heat dissipation grooves to make brake cooling better. The heat dissipation grooves behind the spacers can boost the cooling efficiency. This is helpful in reducing brake thermal decay, and improving road safety.
2. Forged Aluminum for Improved Safety
BONOSS forged active cooling 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers are made of forged 6061-T6/ 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. The tensile strength is up 572 MPa (AL7075-T6). High tensile strength gives it strong resistance to being pulled apart, making it resistant to bending and breaking. Therefore, forged aluminum wheel spacers with higher tensile strength are safer and better.
3. ISO Grade 12.9 Wheel Studs for Enhanced Stability
The provided BONOSS wheel studs are made of high-strength forged SCM440 alloy steel. They have achieved ISO grade 12.9 standards:
- Tensile strength≥1,220 MPa;
- Ultimate tensile load≥152,000 N;
- Hardness (HV)≥395;
- NSS≥500H.
High-strength wheel studs and nuts ensure a strong wheel-spacer-hub connection. With such high-strength hardware, your hub centric wheel spacers can bear more force without breaking.
Frequently Asked FAQ
Q: Can you fit 5×120 to 5×114.3?
A: Yes, with hub centric wheel adapters 5×114.3 to 5×120, you can fit 5×120 wheels on a car with a 5×114.3 bolt pattern easily.
Q: Can you daily drive with 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers?
A: As long as you torque them properly, you can daily drive with high-quality 2017 Mustang GT wheel spacers.
