Default Yet another wheel question for fox body

I am looking to buy 17x9 95 cobra R wheels in the 4lug pattern for my '85 fox gt. The offset/backspacing stats are +20mm/5.77. AmericanMuscle would not even sell me these wheels in 16x8 saying they would only fit 87-93. Anyone have any more information about this?

Default RE: Yet another wheel question for fox body

Just this afternoon, I purchased these 17x9 wheels from Whitaker's Wheel and Tire in Concord, NC. Theseguys are great! They recommended 235/45/17 for the front and 245/45/17 for the back...could go to 255 on the back if you flip the shock. Anyone in the Charlotte/Concord area should check these guys out before buying.
