Looking at a set of rims from a 1994 mustanfg 17", would that fit on my 2009 GT?
Want to use them for the winter vs getting my damaged due to salt/weather

your talking the tri bars?

i have a set left from my 94. when i got a nail in my tire i put one on to sit while i repaired the hole.

it was on the right rear and it brought the wheel really close to the edge. gave it a good appearance. don't know how the front would look though.

So I won't have a problem with it rubbing ie offset/back spacing or bolt holes alignment

the offset is different. but in this case, the wheels stick out farther then the stock ones on these cars. the wheels will go to the outside of the car, not the inside, so rubbing shouldn't be an issue.

it sits even with the quarter panel. so it fits more like an aftermarket wheel on these cars.

it'll bolt right up.

Awesome drift/track rims. Love the design, the drift boys pay grand theft money to Yokohama for a set of S3 rims which are very similar in design!

they will fit fine...i ran the fr500's off my 95 on the 07 just to see howit'd be and had no issues....as said the back will stick out a tad bit though.

hah, i was thinking the same thing. although, on the right car, they look good. theres a red hatch in the fox body section with them on, and it looks great on his car.

before i even drove the car i had different rims on it, but thats because i needed new tires all around, and i found a good deal on the rims i bought with brand new tires for cheaper then i would of bought tires for .

and notquik, if i remember right, these sit flush with the fender, they may even be a 1/8th inch in. they didn't even fit the 94s right haha. all the aftermarket wheels though from 94-04 i've seen on these cars have stuck out. the stockers from 94-04 have sat pretty nicely.


now i'm halfway considering finding a set of 10th anniversary stockers to throw on to see how they look.

Does anyone know how light those wheels are btw? If they are light enough I might get them powdercoated black and sell my heavy 03 termi's.

If I'm not mistaken, don't the 03 replica terminator wheels weigh close to 30lbs?

Also, do the 3 spokes come in 16s and 17s? I could of swore mine were 16's...
