    Rim size question

    My current wheels (Pony's) are 16x7 with a 22mm offset and a back spacing of 4.875. The wheels I am about to purchase are 17x8, 12mm, 4.95 (front) and 17x9 24mm, 5.95. What will these numbers affect? Will the wheel stick out more or be sunk in the fender more?

    What is the difference between FRPP B and C Springs?

    Check out the chart on this page. This is all I found. According to this, they are the same drop. http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=271 What does the difference in spring rate mean?

    What is the difference between FRPP B and C Springs?

    Summit doesn't have any specs and I can't find much online. The only info I did find was that they BOTH are about .8 drop in the front and .5 in the rear. If that is the case then what is the difference? MY car is dropped 1.5 now and its too much. The ride is harsh and bigger wheels won't...

    Anyone ever try AFS Wheels?

    I'm staying with 4 lug for now and these are all I have found so far (Ford replica, I don't want a non genuine Ford look). I have been to almost the end of the internet.

    Can I put a 275/40 17 on a 17X8 rim?

    I just think they would look skinny. My other option is to go with these.. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=TWG%2D830%2D7934C&FROM=MG Does anyone have any experience with these? Will a 9 inch rim fit on the front of a lowered car?

    Can I put a 275/40 17 on a 17X8 rim?

    Its a stock short block 30 over with a cam, GT40 intake, a ton of little bolt ons, and a little blower making about 5-6 psi. The car runs strong but its no animal. Low 12's with a good hook and some abusive shifting. I will probably throw some AFR 165's at it this winter

    Can I put a 275/40 17 on a 17X8 rim?

    The tire will be a pair of MT ET Street radials. The other problem I am having is that I have not been able to find a 4 lug Cobra R wheel in 17x10

    The min recommended rim width is 9 inches. Is it a saftey issue or will they just look balooned out?

    The thread of the nicest FOXES!

    Beautiful car! Where did you get those wheels? I want 99 Cobras but I'm not going to pony up a grand for the full 5 lug conv. Plus they only come in 17X8. I am looking for a wheel that will look good with a 275/40/ 17 for the rear and those look great. I might pick a set up and powder coat...

    Rim size and Offset help please

    I was going to go with the 50resto kit. I know that the center caps will not fit without midifying them but I can't spend 1000 bucks right now just to accomodate these wheels. The other bummer is that the 99 Cobra is 17x8 and I want to run a drag radial which is only offered in 275/40 17 (BFG...

    Rim size and Offset help please

    Looking at some 17x8 99 Cobra rims. What tires can I fit on those and what offset am I looking for. What does the offset affect? What offset are the stock Pony's? Sorry for the dumb ass question but I have never done anything more that stock wheels on any of my Mustangs

    18 inch Saleens on a Fox....2 questions

    So if I pound the dust caps flat, the center caps will fit? My original plan was a set of 99 Cobras. I think both look bad ass but I didn't want to spen 1000 bucks on a conversion just so I could spend another 1200 + on rims and tires

    18 inch Saleens on a Fox....2 questions

    That is a sweet car. Did the centercaps fit with just the rotor swap? What springs/strut/shock combo are you running and finally, how does it ride? Mine is dropped but I'm not sure how much because I bought it that way. I don't even know what springs are in it? All I know is that it rides...
