17x9? Reply #3 – May 07, 2006, 08:58:07 AM i guess i copied the wrong picture, its a 4 lug version - hence the 4 x 108 pattern. Quote Selected
17x9? Reply #4 – May 07, 2006, 02:54:39 PM i didn't read that... it was late. =/Anyhoos, if you read through those threads then you could come to the logical conclusion that 17x9s will fit. IMO rubbing will depend on two main areas, ride height and tire size. 245s seem to be a happy medium and obviously if you plan on keeping stock ride height you should be okay. Quote Selected
17x9? Reply #5 – May 10, 2006, 03:56:50 AM What he said If they're the same back spacing as the cobras for 4 lug mustangs then yes they will fit with out any rubbing. even with 245-45-17x9s in front I have no tire rubb EVER. But at full lock, somtimes the inner wheel hits the tie rod or the sway bar ends (i just drew a blank). But thats because I went to the fox mustang lower control arms. With stock lca's you wont have any rubbing. But the wheel will stick out from the fender. Quote Selected
