[QUOTE="ReplicaR, post: 986044, member: 9209"] New wheels test fit Decided to order one Enkei RPF1 in 17x10 just to test fit. The common belief is that Mustangs with Cobra R brakes (Brembo 13 inch kit) do not clear those. Well, I'm happy to report that they do in fact clear the wheels, and the suspension. It does stick out just a tiny little bit in the front, at full droop. I'm thinking that I'll have the fenders pulled just an inch, and at ride height it will probably be perfect. Best part is the wheel takes 8 lbs a corner off my current track wheel setup (Cobra R 17x9 = 25lbs, Enkei RPF1 17x10 = 17lbs), and I should get better sidewall action, as well as better contact patch, since I'm going away from 17x9 wheel on a 275 NT-01 [IMG]http://i44.tinypic.com/33z4ly8.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i44.tinypic.com/zt9mwo.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/1g0wi.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/296g1p1.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
