i have a 5 lug converion on my foxbody w/ crossdrilled and slotted rotors 11 inche. i dont know what kind their new and were on the car when i bought it . i use to have 94 cobra wheels on their and they fit right. now that i try and put on my 18x9 roush wheels they wont even go on the rotor . the part that goes on the center cap is to fat for the hole thats on the wheel.(its kind hard to explain)
really what i want to know is what rotor do i need to run in order to fit these roush wheels?
i want to replace them with a cross drilled and slotted rotor.
also i have stock spindles if i had sn95 spindles would it a make a difference ?

Sounds like you have lincoln/svo rotors. Due the large dust cap it prevents alot of the newer mustang wheels from being mounted. There are 2 solutions you can take your rotors to a machine shop and have the dust cap cut off or you can convert to SN-95 front spindles and rotors. Good Luck ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Just take a grinder and bevel the edge where your dust cap goes.
It will take some time but works great.
I have not done it myself but I have seen it done and it works!
Good luck
