Default 1994 Mustang GT 10.5" rim fitment probs

I just got some new deep dish bullets for my 1994 GT. There 10.5 inch in the back 9 inch in the front, my car is lowered 1.5 " and my rims are very close to the back of the fenderwell and everything in or around it, aka shocks, tailpipes, etc. is there any way to get the wheel to stick out further away from the inner fenderwell and all the other crap so they will fit correctly, i haven't even put tires on them yet and there already really close.

absolutely. Mock it up un the rotor. Measure from the rim to the back of the well, then measure from the rim to the outside and see what the difference is. You can buy wheel spacers in just about any thickness to move the rim out. You do have all that stuff in the wheel well to clear and just the top of the wheel opening on the outside so Keep it out a bit to be safe. people forget or don't realize that the wheel moves side to side a lot. Don't think that because you have a 1/2'' clearence that the wheel won't rub. Bumps and corners. it'll rub.
