Opinion on Wheels
« on: July, 22, 2010, 10:06:22 AM »
Was wondering what people think of these rims. I like them and thinking of buying them but the guy doesnt know what bolt pattern the wheels are.

Nope, never cared for that style. Looks like the backspacing would cause problems on a Mustang....

the car previously came with 3/4" spacers (front & rear) to fit the 99GT wheels so they might fit with the spacers on. Dont even know the bolt pattern though, so without knowing that I wouldnt buy them anyway.

... and he doesn't own a ruler?  Or know how to use it?

Determine bolt pattern by measuring the distance between the outer two of any three adjacent holes (skip a hole).

From the looks of them, I'd say your problem could be too little backspace, not too much (requiring a spacer).
