I need new rims on my 1968 mustang, but will rims from newer mustangs fit in mine?? and what years??
help i dont wanna pay double the price

[jcromer09]

well new mustangs have the five lug bolting and i think yours has four
I would just find a solid donor car and pull the rear end and front spinals from that. Just remember that you will need a new tranny and radiator as well as motor mounts and possible front shocks to handle the extra weight.

There are literally thousands of disk break kits. You just need to pick the right one for your application, be it a racing or a standard street application. That is something thats your decision and as far as a good place to start looking is either at Summitracing.com or CJpony parts either are excelent. CJ's does nothing but Mustang everything and they can suggest some better quality kits and their advise is solid. Summit is a parts depot that has a bunch of great stuff for all cars.

how do you figure you would need new motor mounts trans radiator for a 5 lug conversion

[hypostang]

Generally speaking late model wheels will not fit without adapters, the lug pattern is the same but the front center hub is too large to fit in the newer wheels , with that being said there are exceptions .
I suggest looking to the aftermarket for different wheels there are thousands of styles in a multitude of price ranges
good luck

His car doesn't need a lug conversion, it's 5 lugs already being a V8 car.

What on earth are you talking about? He's talking about putting new wheels on. Not dropping in a new engine.

[boosted stang]

[derfiticulum]

You're talking some pretty big rubber there. You may have some serious clearance issues.
