Default Deep Dish 17x10.5 bullitts

Has anyone used the 50resto 5lug conversion on their fox with deep dish 17x10.5 from american muscle? just curious if they would fit...and if that conversion kit is well made. im just going to have a shop do the entire conversion for me, no free time until next spring!

I"m dialing in some eBay conversions for the winter. I think the kits are over priced. Just get the front stuff used and get new drums in the rear then either buy new better five lug axles or get two left ranger axles.

They can be "made" to fit. The sn95 conversion is a better way to go though.
