Question about wheels ...

Would a set of slicks from a 200X Mustang fit on my 88 Formula? Would any New Mustang wheels fit for that matter?

That's right, unless you can get a 5 X 4.75 to 5 X 4.5 custom wheel adapter, which won't be easy.

Somebody on here has some cobra rims on a red TA and I think they look really good. So it is possible, just not sure how. Try doing a search and you might find it.

No Pork -

I am not getting Mustang rims, nor am I looking into them. Thanks Brett for the pic, though - That car's badass!

I just know someone here at school that has a set of slicks for his 200X mustang that said I could borrow them to run at the track if I wanted too. But since they dont fit, I guess i can't. Thanks for the info ...
