For vehicles with 17" wheels from the factory: -installing 18" x 8.5" or 18" x 9.5" wheels, use steering stop 6R3Z-3932-CA

 

Just got a reply on my thread from one of the guys. I asked about FRPP SVT wheels. He said no problems with 18" or even 20".

 

are steering stops what I think they are; something to stop the larger wheel from hitting in the wheel well?

 

I went from 17" argent bullets to the 18" chrome bullets and did not install the stops. I have no problems at all.

My 06'GT with 20's,no stops on this ride.It also had a FRPP Handling Pack on it as well.

 

I went to 20's from 17's and I have eibach pro lowering springs. I did not change the stops and have had no issues or rubbing.
