I AM GONNA VOTE FOR THIS KIND OF STUFF IN THE TALK SECTION.

^^^ Here's a link to their ebay store.^^^
I noticed they don't list the specs, but they are probably specifically designed for the wider fendered SN's. I also didn't see any 4-lug wheels like these.

They're probably a little too deep for a fox body. The front would probably rub bad on the fender lips when turning or on strut compression. They will probably, in my opinion, stick too far outside of the fenders with any 5-lug conversion. The 17x9's on the rear with a Ranger drum/axle might fit, but without wheel specifications it's hard to say with any certainty

Good Luck and don't forget my advice in the technical post above. You'll save yourself a sachel of dough if you buy smart. Don't rush into it or we'll all be seeing you selling wheels in the classifieds shortly after

It helps when you actually post technical information on these type of threads rather than what you and I just posted here.

Not all posts made on tech threads contain technical advice either.

Personally, This is what I think you should do. There's an ebay company called O E Wheels, and you can pick up a set of 17x9 polished aluminum cobra r's for $449 shipped to your house. Then, take the money you saved from not buying chrome and pay someone to do a good job of spraying them with 3 or 4 coats of clearcoat. Then, your wheels will shine like chromies, they won't chip like chromies, and will clean up nice unlike regular polished aluminum because of the clearcoat

^^That's a good idea completely, but have you looked at the OE wheels?
They are a +20mm offset in 9" width, right. Well, they will fit fine in the rear, but up front they are going to stick out about 3/4".

The fronts should be around a +30mm in a 9" width.
