I haven't been here in awhile as I finished my car. I have a 70 mach I with the 14" magnum factory wheels. I just don't think they fill in the wheel wells too well. I have found some bullitt wheels and tires, size 17 X 9 with Yoko ES tires. What kind of problems am I looking at as far as clearence. I assume the bolt pattern is still the same.

Thanks in advance!

17x9's will fit on the rears depending on the backspacing, but as far as I know you will not be able to fit a 17x9 on the front. Check out this tread http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=726049

The fronts are 17x8's with 245/45/17's. I am using a 1" spacer.
