Do You Have 17" wheels on it right now?

In 2003:

The V6 came from the factory with 225/55R16
The GT and Mach I came from the factory with 245/45R17
The Cobras came from the factory with 275/40R17

In Short YES it will work on a 17 inch wheel but it is really skinny

205/50R17 - Width: 8.07" Diameter: 25.07 (When your speedo reads 65, you will be doing 63)
225/55R16 - Width: 8.86" Diameter: 25.74
245/45R17 - Width: 9.65" Diameter: 25.68 (When your speedo reads 65, you will be doing 64.85)
275/40R17 - Width: 10.83" Diameter: 25.66 (When your speedo reads 65, you will be doing 64.80)

Thank you a lot Iv been trying to find someone with the answer and everyone beats around the bush or didn’t know
 
Well Welcome to Stangnet man. Ask us all kinds of junk you never know who works where or knows what.

I have a 95 Vert with the 245/45R17 on her and they look good. I can go bigger also. Its all about "Tire Math"
