So I guess I am getting conflicting statements, but this guy has the pics to prove it. When running the lincoln rotors I've been told that you have to grind down the hub of the rotor like so...,so that the wheels will mount correctly. <img src="http://www.mustangmods.com/data/9820/jse_dsc01161.jpg" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://www.mustangmods.com/data/9820/jse_dsc01162.jpg" alt=" - " /> <br /> Has anyone tried the Lincoln rotor route w/ an 18x9 24mm wheel? I seems like the Lincoln rotors allow the wheel to sit in a bit more. If this is true would it be the offset of the rotor that is allowing the wheel to tuck in or do the SN-95 spindles really increase track width? LMK what you think.<br /><br />Thanks<br />G.C<br /> <br /> <small>[ April 14, 2005, 08:53 AM: Message edited by: 1992gtdrop ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SilverLX351</b> <br /><small>Member # 3207</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,3,14,8,42,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I have Mark 7 rotors, and I had to do something like that to make my wheels fit.
