I got a set of 05 chrome Bullitt wheels for $100, couldnt pass it up. I have a 89 GT (2'' lowering springs) and still a 4 lug set up. The Bullitts are 17x9. I put the MarkVII rotors on (free) and the wheels hit my front shock before the wheel touches the rotor face. Will wheels spacers work, looking like 1'' needed will SN95 spindles move it out far enough to clear the shock? I know theres alot of info out there but I havent seen anyone with problems running 9'' wide rims up front.

I can run the 05+ offset on my car, I have 99-04 spindles on my car and it spaces it out perfectly to run the s197 wheel.
