What is the spacing for 94-04 mustangs on the lugs? Is it 5 x 4.5", also does it change to the 05 years? I know the foxbody's are 4 lug. Im trying to find some rims for my s10/48 chevy project and i love the bullitt style rims

Re: quick lug spacing question

In the past Ford and GM wheels were not interchangable. You could swap Ford and Dodge wheels. I guess this post was really useless and did not help. :dunno:

Yeah,the SN 95 bolt pattern is 5x 4.5 (or 5x114.3 for you metric minded types) and the new Mustangs are the same except with a much higher offset,like a front wheel drive. The bolt pattern for the S10 is 5 x 4.75 so it won't work for you,sorry.

Re: quick lug spacing question

oh on the flip-side mr hybridbird, they may work haha. I found some wheel adapters(we needed spacers anyway) Do you, or anyone else, know the backspacing and offset for factory mustang rims? for both sn95 and new edge if its different

Thats entirely possible, 0 offset means that the mounting flange is exactly at the center of the wheel and that from that flange to the inside lip of the wheel is 4 3/4 inches.That wheel would however,be for a S197 Mustang.The SN95's and and the new edges (99-04) use the same bolt pattern/ offset.

offset on 94-04s.. are 24mm.. my 06 gt wheels i had, were about 30mm offset, they almost had them flat against the outer edge of the wheel. need like 1" spacers out back atleast and 1/4"+ in the front to make the work, but they fit :dunno:
