    Quick question about wheels for 2000 GT

    So Ive been browsing around for new wheels to replace the stockers on my 2000GT, I notice a lot of places sell rims that say "Fits 2005 - 2008 Mustangs" , Did the bolt pattern change in 05 or what is it that makes them not work on earlier mustangs? Thanks. For example: Link
