    I'm putting stock tires off a 3000 gt on my Mav. They are 245/45/R17.

    I was thinking the 1.5"?

    i have 1inch spacers in the frt and 1.5 in the rear. and 1.5inch in the rear. i have the larger ones in the rear because im running sn95 cobra spec wheels and tires..245/45.17 frt 275/40/17 rear. i used 1.5 spacers for clearance of the leaf springs and because i wanted to have the fenders rolled enough where the wheels barely tuck inside. i must say it looks kick azz! and i know.. the tire is on backward! lol i just had it on for fitment purposes at this point
