The newer cars have a wider track than a Fox. Therefore these later model wheels have a very deep offset, which means they'll bolt up to a five lug converted Fox but will sit waaay up under the car possibly contacting the shocks, struts, ect, ect.
To run them you'd need to run spacers.

05+ Mustangs typically run a +35mm offset on a 9" wide rim. That ebay ad does not give you rim width, offset, nor back spacing.

I just looked them up on Google. Those are 2015 GT wheels and are 40mm offset. You'd definitely need to run spacers with those on a fox.

Probably 1"inch spacers.

Eh, one inch spacer is a bit much. I wouldn't recommend that.. If you want some nice oem style wheels look at LMR or American Muscle, respectively. I run 2010 GT style wheels on my fox from AM. Not too many folks have them, I love em.

1" spacers? Wouldn't you need new lugs for something like that?

Usually spacers that thick come with nuts to install them with that counter sink inside the spacer.They have studs that you then bolt your wheels on with your lug nuts. I've never used them. I just don't think it's a good idea to do something like that. It's best to use a better fitting wheel IMO.

That's right, I remember seeing that online somewhere.

I understand wanting to use some of those newer cool looking wheels though.

So, all you got to do then is change out the rear end with a newer model 8.8 and totally redo the front spindle area and then you can buy the cheap priced wheels.

More reasons to go with 96+ spindles up front and matching rear end!

So.... You spend a crap ton of money so you can save money on oem take off wheels? Sounds legit.

Since when did we get in to Foxbody's to save money?

Good point, but don't drive around your ass to get to your elbow..


That is how that saying goes, right?

Yes they are but not the ones that really work well. The 94/95 spindles are the correct ones.
