i've been looking for wheels as you might know and there's a pretty good deal i think on some 4 luggers... the question is, is there a conversion spacer to go 5 to 4 lug or would it be too difficult and not worth it to go with the 4 lugs? i looked some for a spacer but didn't see anything, and since it's so late i thought i'd just ask.

any other opinions on the matter are appreciated.

Don't do that! There are reasons fox owners do a 4 to 5 lug converions.
1. Better choices of wheels to choose from
2. 5 lug wheels look a lot better than 4 lug ones
3. Better brakes
An SN95 mustang is going to look awfully weird with 4 lug wheels, trust me.

us fox guys are ALWAYS getting your brakes - dont do it.
also, i think spacers are a horrible idea.

my two cents. good luck.
