Default Wheel Spacer/Studs (Rear)

Looking for 1/2" spacers (and longer studs) for the back wheels on my 06 GT.
I've heard that Maximum Motorsports are probably the best choice for this, but was wondering if anyone has specs or part numbers from ARP or MOROSO for longer studs.

Has anyone done spacers on the S197s?

Why do you want to run spacers?

Just wanna bring out the rear wheels a bit to give the car a wider stance. 1/2" seems to be perfect for keeping the tire just inside the fender without rubbing.

Gotcha... Just beware that using spacers often creates ride and handling problems..
