So I finally purchased new tires for the Sterns and should be delivered this week. BFG 225/45/17 and 255/40/17.

I've trying to decide for the front between:

Eibach 20mm: https://www.americanmuscle.com/eibac...20mm-0514.html (won't clear large front snout hub)

Eibach 25mm: https://www.americanmuscle.com/eibach-spacers-25mm.html (won't clear large front snout hub) [25mm seems to have worked just right]

Any preferences? there are no 23mm wheel adaptor/spacers and this (or the HRE kit: https://lmr.com/item/HR-5065705/H-R-...-79-14-5065705) precludes the need for ARP studs and drilling.
(won't clear large front snout hub)

Any thoughts would be appreciated. (I know the old adage- get the right offsets, but that ship has sailed)

Update: Don't use HRE Trak + from LMR: don't clear. Don't use the 2015+ has different bolt threads and will not clear the front bearing hub. Research and be sure will clear large front snout hub Lincoln Mark VII. TBD since I haven't confirmed a fit just yet.
