I am a proud new owner of an 89 GT Vert. I recently purchased the "1979-93 FORD MUSTANG SVE ANNIVERSARY WHEEL KIT - 17X9/10 - BLACK" from LMR along with an 8mm front spacer that was recommended for the front by other buyers.
I will be running 235/45r17s on the front (I am aware they are a bit small but I already own them) and I am looking to run a 285 or 295/40r17 in the rear. I am looking for recommendations on tire size and brand/specific tire. Here are the wheel specs.
Wheel Specs
Wheel Diameter - 17"
Wheel Width - 9"
Lugs - 4
Offset - +20mm
Backspacing - 5.95"
Wheel Weight - 25lbs
Wheel Diameter - 17"
Wheel Width - 10"
Lugs - 4
Offset - +25mm
Backspacing - 6.25"
Wheel Weight - 25 lbs
I am on all stock suspension and I am wondering if I need to remove or "flip" the rear quad shocks? Also do I need to "massage" anything? I am at stockish ride height so I'm also not sure about rolling the fenders.
Pics for attention/refference
