Hi folks,
Newbie here...first post. I just picked up a 1990 Mustang GT. It has the stock turbine wheels on it. I'd like to put a set of the Cobra R wheels. I did quite a few searches here and on google as well and I just can't seem to find a straight answer...so I thought I'd ask you experts.

If I want to put a set of these on without modification of any kind to the car (no rolling fenders, etc)....what is the maximum wheel/tire size I can go with in the front and the back?

I was thinking of 17x9 with 245/40's all the way around. Does that work? Or do I need to get 17x8's?

I had the turbines on my 89 but I went to a 5 lug conversion and now have 17 x 9 with 245 /40 /17 on all 4 corners on my 89 and I have no problem at all with the fitting.
