Winter is moving in fast here in Sweden. I found a set of winter tires for my '94 GT ,they are 17 inch factory alu .
(3Z1007C ) . When I went to mount them the would not sit flush with the hubs. The center/hub of the wheel is cone shaped. Now looking at the hubs pictures I see that '05 -14 is not the same as the '94 -'98. Comparing the pictures from American Muscle's site. But the '05-'14 aren't tapered/cone shaped either. from Americanmuscle ite I read this too "SN95 Mustangs (1994-2004) can use 2005-2014 wheels; they will be tucked inside the wheel well and require a spacer"
Have been thinking about spacers already, as that the summer tires sit kind of tucked in too. The ones that I can get here in Sweden that are hub-centric are 20mm. this would also compensate for the difference in the ET of the newer model wheel .But again these are not tapered/cone shaped.
What am I missing here ?
(sorry for the text size change don't know what button to use to make the text all the same size)

Ok I will admit , I was born blonde... the fronts had the plastic spacers for the after market wheels and the backs had just enough rust on the hub to keep the the wheels from going on. Rust cleaned up and wheels fitted...
