i am trying to fit a set of +44 offset wheels on my fox mustang with sn95 5 lug conversion.

The factory wheels(cobra and cobra R's) offset is +24 so i have about 20mm difference in offset.

Do i have to use spacers or do i not need it? it will just mount up? does anyone know?

The +44 offset will work fine on 2005+ mustangs but i don't know about the fox bodied mustangs. let me know. and what is the maximum offsets of wheel i can go on fox mustangs stock?

I NEED TO KNOW THIS ASAP. and again thanks fellas.

How wide are the wheels? If they are 9" then IMO you will never get the +44 to work right. You could use a spacer (20mm=~3/4") if you want your new wheels to fall off, but if you want them to stay on the car, get the proper offset.
