I am looking at the kits from dallas mustang and steeda. They are simple rotor and axle/drum swaps, no new calipers or spindles. I have heard that not all 5 lug mustang wheels will work with this kit because of the size of the front hubs or something stick out too far. I want 5 lug 17in cobra R wheels. Does anyone know if this application will work? I don't really want to get '94 and up spindles and rotors, these other kits are just easier. Thanks.

I am not sure it will because the dust cap will hit the center cap on the wheel.This is because on the stock style rotor/hub, the dust cap sticks out way too far. You might be able to run the wheels without the center caps.....I wouldn't though.

I may be wrong though.

I thought that FRPP makes a kit that converts to 5 lug and you can run the wheels with the center cap.....
