Default 2007 Wheels on a 1987

I did a search but my questions were not answered.
I have a chance to get a set ofstock Torque Thrust Wheels off a 2007 GT. http://www.v6mustangstuff.com/images...and%20Tire.JPG

Ebay sells a spacer 4 to 5 lug conversion kit. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...58256&rd=1

Is this kit any good? The seller states that with this conversion, the 2007 wheel will work on a fox body mustang.
Any Comments?
Thanks.

I currently have the 10 hole dial tone wheels 15 inch and want to go to the ones linked above which are 17 inch.
Does anyone know what the offset is on the Dial tone wheels?

Yea i would not recommend that kit.. My friend had it and its cheap allumininum.. His stud snapped and they would strip extremely easy... I would highly recommend doing it the correct way as mattdel already stated above..

OK then.
For an Foxbody, what wheel size works the best. I am interested in the torque thrust wheels -17in. Offset size? Spacers? Inform me on what works or what has worked for you. Thanks.

Get an SN95 5 lug conversion and just use 17" Bullits.

My 93 has 16" Ponys with a 5.72 bs. I think 05-07 are something like 6.30, not sure. The older Bullit rims are around 5.72 i think. Better off with the Bullits.

Im not a wheel expert, thats just what i read.
