Has anybody got these rims on a fox yet?

The 17" S197 wheels fit fine if you use the SN95 brake setup with the 96+ spindle and Sn95 track in the rear.


With the 18's, the inside of the wheel hits the strut, so you will need a spacer but then it will stick past the fender lip

yes ive seen them...I believe Mustang5L5 is correct here from my research...i wanted some of the 17's real bad and coulda got a cheap set but they were a no go for my conversion.

Meh ... still not a fan of 'em.

They just don't look like they're very at-home on a Fox. A lot of the '05+ wheels just seem a little bit too far-removed in styling from the Fox to really look quite right on 'em. Even some of the S197 rims are kinda iffy; Bullitts are usually a safe bet (that basic design has been around since the 60's), but a lot of the others like Mach 1's just look like something Matchbox would've put on one of their cars - too big, too shallow/convex-shaped, almost cartoonish. Just me, though...

Guess im one of the only ones who think they are bad ass

They look just like the wheels on my 04 Crown Vic Sport.

Cowls look real mean on vics/marqs & marauders. (put one on)


and bout the rims..

They looked great in the chop.. but not in real life.
