Will Mustang wheels fit?

[Rodger Tellefson]

As some of you know my son works for a collision repair shop, (you can see where this is going) and they get a Mustang in with some minor scratches on the wheels. Three of the wheels get replaced and the shop says get them out of here; asks me if I would like them, and of course I say yes. My question then is will the bolt pattern & wheel width fit on our ST? As you can see I have to buy one more wheel, and fix the scratches. They would really look good on our ST if they fit.

Yes, Most require spacers though. The stock backspacing on the mustang rim is too much.

Yes they fit, but they will require spacers to fit the center caps on.

Thanks guys. What size spacers? :unsure: Nice looking truck Jeff.

I have 1.25" spacers on the rear and the caps fit on fine, but I'm going to get 1.5" spacers for the rear and move the 1.25" spacers to the front. I just love pulling up to someone in a GT, and they look over like WTF? And look up at me (course my windows are nice and dark so they can't see me)

they will, w/ the above mods, but, i heard that the mustang rims are not designed for the weight of the ST....

 

[Jeff C]

The ones I got are rated at 1400lbs each. Seeing as how my ST weighs roughly 4600lbs with passengers and gas, I still have an extra 1200lbs to play with (plus I have a feeling that the load ratings are lower than actual numbers for precaution) and I have driven on some really bad interstates since I got the rims. If they were going to break, they would definitely have broken when I hit the construction zone in Montgomery on 85/65 when I was doing 115mph.

Thanks again guys. I found out that the rims are '03 Buttet wheels. I think that they should be able to handle the weight. Where would I find out that information? They look identical to your Jeff.
