How'd you guys come up with +52? Any thoughts on what amount of spacer would be needed up front to have decent clearance?

I imagine the rear fender sheet metal was the driver there (the PF01 18x10.5 at 38 definitely pokes out back) but I'm curious at +52 what we'll need to do to get the fitment up front.

Thanks!
About 20mm give or take.

Yay...!
 
Received this email today that the first batch of 18x11s are now available, plus another email to complete my payment on the wheels I pre-ordered:

Great news! We received the first batch of 18x11” ET52 Mustang Wheels ahead of schedule. This batch includes some but not all Anthracite and Satin Black finish wheels.



If you ordered Race Silver or have not received a payment notification regarding your remaining balance, then your wheels are arriving in the 2nd batch with an ETA of late June or early July.



Orders shipping now will receive a tracking number via email the day it departs. It may take a few days to process.

They're here!

Going to need 20mm of spacer up front for JRZ struts, others might get away with less (cortex might not need much at all). That said, here's with 15mm with a quick out of the box shot. It clears the strut, but I'm pretty certain a mounted tire wouldn't clear. More testing to come when its not 121* outside.

Points for surviving 121* without spontaneously combusting. The wheels, are a bonus.

With the angle of that strut, I bet a mounted tire does clear!

As a note, looks a little better on the paint process than my last set.

The barrels are glossy more akin to the bbs wheels, my 18x10 ec7s are fairly matte. Not a big deal but nice for anyone using these as a street wheel or for cleaning
