I have some deep dish 03 Cobra replicas on the way for my 95 GT ( yes I know its not a 4.6) & I was unsure weather or not the 17x10.5 with 315's will fit in the rear with the quad shocks still on the car. I had 18x10's with 295's on my 97, but I had already removed the quadshock before installing the wheels since I had aftermarket lca's. It didnt look like they would fit though... Anybody get this wide of a wheel to fit with the quadshocks?? Thanks

Mine fit with no issues, though I think it may vary a bit by brand of tire.

Thanks. I guess I shouldve said, will they fit a 94-98, because I know they will fit on a 99-04. The 99-04's axle is about an inch or so longer than a 94-04, that is why u have no issues with the quads or inner fenders... Thanks again though...

I know they fit on 96-98's if your car's in alignment suspension and frame wise. If it rubs, flip the quad shock upside down and it should give you an extra 1/2" or so

My 315's don't rub the quad's at all, only my right rear rubs slighty on the inner part of the wheel well when i go into a hard right turn and the wheel goes through the suspension oscillations.
