I was told on the rear you need 5 1/2" of backspacing. And sometimes you need spacers on the front to clear the brakes 7/16" . :dunno:
Hope it helps

thanxs, how big of a back tire can you put on a 98 mustang gt. I have been told 10" but i am not sure. I was thinking 15"x8" on the front and 15"x10" on the back. what do you guys think? and will it work?

Well if you want the skinny drag look 3.5" in the front. 15x10's in the back. I know people run 26x10.5w's in the back.
