Mach 1 Wheels on S650 GT- Fitment Questions

I will. I’m not sure if you were retaining all the actual ford parts - struts/springs/etc because they mentioned that they can’t validate the wheels will fit if using anyone else’s suspension components

Where exactly were yours rubbing? And when? On the inside- was it a wheel lock issue or did it rub when just moving straight? What were your alignment settings? What tires were you running? And was it hitting the tires or the wheels?

I have Factory MagneRide struts on my PP but am using Ford Performance Track Sway Bars, and Springs. I was using 1.21 degrees as specified in the owner's manual for the dark horse street setup. The Interference was with the strut tower itself using MP4S tires.

Another member with regular PP @Joe_Cool was able to get the wheels bolted but had rub on turn:

The front PP wheel is ET45, since then based on my measurements with this issue, I went 35 on wider wheels without issue.

Wouldn't a small spacer have fixed that?

Yes, as I mentioned in my previous comment about the wheels, you would need a spacer with this setup. Cosmetically it's fine, however, as someone who tracks their vehicle you do not want this.

Yeah I’m thinking a small spacer and if needed wheel turn / steering locks like these:
