Question about Mickey Thomspon ET Drag Wheels

Stock 5 point 0 · 05-12-2007, 10:17 PM

I am thinking about buying a set of these for my new stocker I am getting ready to start building. It will be a 89 Mustang. You can only get a 15x8 with a 4.5 back spaceing. Do any of you guys know if this would be the right off set for a mustang. I know a 15x8 Weld wheel is 5.5 back spaceing. If you or any body you know that put these wheels on a 79-93 Mustang let me know if they fit good .Thanks

Did you check with Larry Hodge? (Find his link at the top of the page under "drag wheels" on Racingjunk.com)
He has a much larger selection of backspacings than direct from M/T. I just bought two sets this week. Smokin' deal!

I assume you are converting to 5 lug wheels? The 4 lugs are not available yet from Mickey.
Most Mustang wheels don't have enough negative offset because of the original horizontal (quad) shocks.
