Incursus's Mustang

[Titsy]

Quoting: Roadkill

I was referring to if the rims/tyres physically clashed with the inner arch

I doubt they made more than one chassis for mustangs during that period, so there is no reason why they should...

Agreed . . . but best to make chris aware of the possibility . . .

I just wanna be 100% sure they will fit.

[Roadkill]

As long as the stud PCDs are the same they'll be close enough I'd say.

PCD's are the same, does that statement come with a money back guarantee?  

[philoldsmobile]

i'm 99% sure  they fit

actualy, there is a 95 V6 in Rushden with 05 wheels on it, so i'd say if the wheels from the totaly new car would fit, the wheels off the facelift SN95 will

it is basicly the same car, just a facelift up to 04, hell, the interiors are virtualy identicle save a couple of changes around the shifter

Mine

How are you gonna lower it and add 17" wheels???

Or the bigger question is WHY?!?!

[Incursus]

Because at the moment it looks like it has an allergic reaction to the ground.

Changing to 17" wheels will make very little difference to the rolling radius of the wheels.

Trust me it will look much better

Yeah.

a) It's a V6 and,
b) It's a Ford !

[sixpack2639]

How low are you planning to go?

I LMAO at the chavs here that lower their cars so much they get hung up on the speed bumps in car parks.

[Incursus]

1.5 inch all round. Probably still wont be as low as a stock Mustang GT.  The V6's are just really high for some reason

The V6's are just really high for some reason

because they have a likkle engine............

[sixpack2639]

I know art was jokeing but he's actually right. (that's a first)

I do believe they used the same springs in the V6's as the V8's so they are gonna set higher because of the difference in weight.

Well done little Fella

[philoldsmobile]

mine actualy sits arse high, but simply fitting the new wheels has visualy lowerd the car, despite them having the same rolling radius..

Sounds very quiet

On the A12 this afternoon were were passed by some tricked up Marcos, all carbon fibre spilters front and rear and a mouseive rear wing, but I have to say it was the loudest road car I've ever heard
We were doing 75mph in the Panda and as it disappeared into the distance about 1/2 mile in front you could still here it
