Mustang wheels... What fits?

Does anybody know what Mustang-type wheels will fit on a 91 SC? I already know that the Y2K COBRA R's won't, but what about 2000+ GT, 1995 Cobra R's, or Bullets?
 
as far as i know, any mustang wheel will fit as long as you change your bolt pattern of the lug nuts to a 4.5" instead of our 4.25" im pretty sure most guys use cobra rear spindles and GT front hubs, but don't forget, you'll need to change your brakes to mustang specs also!

Once you change the bolt pattern, any 17x8 Mustang wheel will fit. Stock Mustang offset 17x9 wheels will stick out too far on a T-Bird, you need more rear spacing. I have a set of 03 Cobra wheels for open-track use on my SC. They need to have about 8 mm machined off the back to fit properly for the street. Not sure if there are any aftermarket replicas for those wheels in T-Bird pattern / offset yet, like the popular 95 Cobra R wheels.

Try a 'search' on this topic, most of the possibilites for wheels have been discussed many times before. :)
