I'm curious what's the best option for 5 lug conversion for my fox body if i want to use oem 17x8 bullitt wheels from an 02 gt. I plan on running the factory 245/45R17 tire size. My concerns are center cap fitment, offset, or any other potential issues i'm not thinking of, thanks!

94-95 spindles,ranger drums and 5 lug axles. You will have to run the 94-95 spindles with the floating rotors so you can keep your centers and keep the trackwidth the same there is actually a whole write up that i did in one of the stickys at the top of the page.Back then my screen name was stangpower96.

You can run te 96+ spindles...it adds a whole 8mm track widthto the front...big deal. I used them and 17x8 wheels sit perfectly flush and your bullits will work well as well.

As for the rear, you can go many routes. From ranger/aerostar axles with drums to Sn95rear disc brakes to 93 Cobra and Turbo coupe thunderbird or even cadillac brakes...

The sn95 will add 3/4" of wodth to each rear wheel. Since you're running 8 inch wheels all around rubbing shouldn't be an issue. I have 9 inch wheels and they rub on rare occasion...rolling the inner wheel lip would solve it completely.

86HOGT, your car looks pretty badass with those wheels

Hey, thanks, man!

You can see in the my sig how flush the fronts fit and the rears stick out a "C" hair. IMO it's perfect...

If you just put Lincoln or SVO front rotors in the front, the dust cap won't let you install the center cap on the bullits...

What is a reasonable price for 1996 spindles and spindles only? should i hit a junk yard or try to find some on ebay?
