Thumbs up

Friend of mine has a 95 GT 5.0 with a Vortech, sick car!!

He wants to know....


Will the 05 Bright Alluminum Finished Wheels fit older Mustangs, such as the 94-95 years? With the offset issues I hear about....

the bolt pattern will fit, but the offset on those rims is +45mm. which means that the wheels will be really recessed far in from the fender. makes the view from the rear look terrible. I believe the 94-04 offset is +24mm. the 05 offset is more like a front wheel drive offset. In my opinion, it will look bad.
