with my newly purchased SC, some 17x8 rims were included. i did some research and i found out they are 1996 mustang cobra rims. they acutally have ford kinda written on them, so i'm guessing they're not aftermarket, even though the inside is painted a gunmetal color. heres a picture of them
heres a picture of the OEM rims
and the website http://www.buycarwheels.com/12FOW04/CarWheels/Mustang/
the wheels have been ran on the car, which i know for a fact because the tires are bald.
but the part that confuses me, is that right now there is 15" thunderbird LX wheels on the car. so my guess is that the hub wasnt changed to fit the wheel. should i just run the 17s as they are? and since the bolt pattern is different for the two cars, would the wheels even go on since mustangs bolt pattern is 4.50 and the tbird is 4.25? thanks
