I am switching over to 5 lug, and need a set of cheap 15" rims for my hoosiers. Any wider rims out there? See the 94-98 ugly v6 stang rims, tbird 93 cobra style (not wide). Any better options?

I've been looking too. Looks like most mustang rims are around 7 inches wide, umless you go to a 17 inch rim. Would be nice to find at least an 8 inch wide rim. Joe

I don't believe Ford ever made a 15" Mustang rim wider than 7". And yea the 17" stuff is 8" wide, but that doesn't really help you as far as tire width. The 16" stuff is no better off, either.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

not going to find anything in the JY unless you find a car with aftermarket rims. I Think mitsubishi also has 5x4.5 lug pattern you may find a rim in the import section but I doubt the backspacing will work and likely the look wont fit your mustang.

Well, there on ten holes right now and worked fine for me on the 1/8 mile track.. a little ballooned looking though.. I guess I will look around today but options are looking slim.. Tb rims are the wrong lug pattern as well.
