Default Mustang wheels ??

So I've been told that Mustang wheels will fit our cars without adapters. I've found a great deal on some 17x8 2005-12 Mustang wheels, 5x4.5" bolt pattern, 6.295" backspacing. Anyone know if they would fit my '98 SC3 ?

They will, yes...mustang wheels tend to be heavy though, so if you are concerned about weight, they may not be the wheels for you

Which mustang wheels are they? Arent there like 8 or 9 different style wheels for the mustang from 05-10?

They will fit, but depending on which ones, the question is will they look decent...not trying to question your taste or decisions, but if your choosing wheels cause they are cheap vs. them looking good, you might want to hold off..

Ahh, ok. There is a pic, or a couple actually of SC's with the bullit wheels, and they didnt look bad at all. Let me see if I can dig up a pic or 2 for you.
