Wheel fitment
« on: July 15, 2015 - 02:37:07 PM »
Replica chrome wheels Mustang style. 17x10 rear 6.5 bs will fit with springs moved in. But not sure about front-  17x8 4.5 bs. Any ideas?

Front rims will be fine.  What size tires?

Manual steering so I can't go very wide. Suggestion?

Make sure you can find a tall enough rear 17" tire to suit your needs. Several years ago there wasn't much in the ~28" tall for a 17" wheel, which pushed me to 18s.

18s on it would look good. Thanks.

Certain year mustang wheels had the correct center opening while other years were too small. Anyone know what years were large enough for Ebody bearing cover?
