Just ordered the Baer Track kit with 13" front rotors, mounted on machined fox spindles (included in the kit). I plan on using 95 Cobra R wheels. The Baer rep said that because that is a sn95 wheel there will be some issues with the spindle punching thru the center cap. He did say that 5 lug 95 cobra R wheels made for the fox spindle are available.

Any sources or ideas? Will the wheel fit without center caps? This is not a street car or a show car, I just need wheels that work and are safe at high speed..

Thanks

Why not just buy the Baer track kit for Sn95 spindles? It will solve all your problems and is a better design. (Sn95 vs Fox)

Only 96-04 spindles are wider...8mm to be exact.

94-95 spindles retain the same front track as the Fox Mustang. This is what i run without any issues.
