Yeah they look really good on the 85/86 and the nitto tires make them look even better. Someone before me did the 5 lug conversion but kept the stock brake size. Maybe it was so they could use the stock calipers but there is alot of room for brake upgrade to 11 inch behind those 17 inch wheels. Thats on my list of upgrades.I [love] those wheels.
That is what I'm going with when I convert to 5-lug.

Not on the agenda for this year but I'll keep it in mind. Maybe this winter.I've got the 13 inch rotors and "stuff" for the SN95 Cobra conversion.
I may be missing a small fitting here and there but all the big pieces are here.
Not sure. I'll have the wheels off this week and will measure the rotors. They dont look very big to me but I'm not really up to speed on all of the configs available.They must of done the Ranger Truck Rotors....
I say that because I do not think the stock calipers will fit on the SN95 upgrade...Not sure. I'll have the wheels off this week and will measure the rotors. They dont look very big to me but I'm not really up to speed on all of the configs available.
Thanks. I've asked the previous owner if he has any more info on what was changed during the 5-lug conversion (but wasnt done by him) and will take some pics of front/back this weekend. I would go with the best set-up I can get that will work without any modifications so any advice would be appreciated. Not interested in lowering the car as I want to keep it looking stock. Thanks again!May have done the Lincoln Mark VII front rotor conversion and Ranger rear axle swap. You will appreciate the SN95 brakes over the Fox garbage as they were barely adequate to stop the car coming out of the driveway. If you do not want to pop for the Cobra level then just go with the V6/GT stuff and use the 99-04 front calipers as they are dual piston and make a difference for low $$$. And as always good brake pads make a huge difference.
