Default Quick wheel question

Ok, I think the older mustang have the same bolt pattern as my 05 but a differen't offset. Is that right?

Well, if so is there some kind of adapter or something that I could use to put those wheels on?

thanks

yes thats correct the 94-04 has the same bolt pattern.........and no there is no such thing as an adapter, however there are wheel-spacers but I would stay as far away from them as you can........most/ probably even all 94-04 wheels will clear your caliper no problem and fit.....but the wheel will stick out further.
This here is a great tool to see the difference. http://gs.tolan-hoechst.com/tirecalc.htm
my advice.....go with an 05+ offset/ wheel and don't use spacers etc.....it will save you a lot of headaches.
good luck
