I have an 89 foxbody coupe and i want to put 18x8 in the front and 18x9.5 in the back. The wheel has a 22mm offset. They are TSW Jarama wheels. Im doing a 5 lug conversion and need to know will i have any problems? I do know that some of the bullit style rims have a 24mm offset and work fine. It doesnt seem like it will make that big of a difference but i could be wrong. Thanks for the help.

You may want to detail how you are doing the 5 lug conversion, that does have an effect on fitment.

There is more to it than that.
What spindles up front, and axles out back, that makes a big difference.
There is a few different ways to do the front and back.

The front spindles are off a 94 mustang. The rear axles are Mosers 28 spline w 94-04 flange from Late model Restoration.
