Will the old style Magnum 500 wheels (15" x 7") fit a regular 1999 thru 2004 Mustang GT's with smaller brakes? Would spacers be needed?
Bullitt 736 said:Try this one Rick. 15x7 are $180 each plus caps and lugs. Not sure the backspacing is deep enough. They're like the original steel wheel. That's still eight bills. What are you thinking about?
I'm thinking about saving $400/wheel if they would work.:lol:
These have the machined finish (instead of chrome), and only come in 18" or larger. I don't want to roll on the rims, and prefer a taller side wall for a smoother ride.McQ Stang said:
If you want cheap get 2003,04 mach1 rims that will fit.Bullitt4204 said:I'm not paying $600+ per wheel, if the old Magnums (cost about $200/wheel) will fit. That's why I'm asking the question. I think $600+ for a wheel like this is CRAZY!!
Are you going to use them on your Bullitt,with a smaller front brake mod?Bullitt4204 said:Will the old style Magnum 500 wheels (15" x 7") fit a regular 1999 thru 2004 Mustang GT's with smaller brakes? Would spacers be needed?

Similar, but not the same.McQ Stang said:You could get the chrome 17x9 hot wheel sixty-eight and paint the slots black.

Nope, not sure what I will do yet. I really wish that whoever makes the old style Magnums, would make them with the correct offset for the 99-04 stangs. I love the chrome and black with the old style rim contours/style. The newer Mach 1 style wheels just don't look as nice, except for Wheel Vintiques, which are $600 + each!54deuce said:So did you order the 03,04 machs in chrome yet or what?
