Uh... wheel question.

All right,
I have been looking everywhere for a good set of wheels (that I like). And I have found some. However, I do not want to use wheel spacers. My question is... does anyone know any info about these wheels?

I can't find any other info about them. The site says they are for third gens, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are. Thanks for the help.

well they are replica y2k cobra R wheels so they are made by a huge variety of companies....they also run a risk of having low build quality as well as they are cast so they are going to be heavy. most that i have seen are 5x4.5" lug diameter and
24mm offset. considering thirdgens have a maximum rear offset lower then 20 and a front offset of 0 your looking at spacers. now i have found a few that have the proper bolt pattern but they are still in a high +mm offset meaning you'll need adapters of some sort.

try a few more of these:

custom wheel market: http://customwheelsmarket.com/ford-o...ca-wheels.html

AAArims: http://www.aaarims.com/specials/mustang.shtml

o.e. concepts: http://www.oeconcepts.com/mustang.html

performance wheel outlet: http://www.performancewheeloutlet.co...ml?id=3&step=2

northcoast: http://www.nthcoast.com/Products/cob...eels2000S.html

just to name a few....

o.e. concepts is the only oem "knockoff" company i would go through since they purchase their molds direct from the particular company. you might call a few companies and see if they can make them in sizes that aren't listed on the website but i doubt it.

unfortunately the only way to get really nice looking rims for our cars are to have them custom made. otherwise 9 out of 10 times you'll need adapters.

good luck
