I needed to get the wheels on there to determine how much clearance I had. It looks like the wheels will clear so its either Eibach's or H&R's. The Eibach's are about an inch and the H&R's are an inch and a half. I'm leaning towards the Eibach's. These cars are a PITA to drop with struts on all 4 corners.<br /><br />The wheels are a custom offset and they have them in numerous bolt patterns. They definitely have a setup for Mustangs. Check them out at <a href="http://www.forgestar.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.forgestar.com</a> and there's a shop that sells them in Las Vegas...
