Author Topic: Compatible wheels??? SWANGaLANGIN_50 ¯ Member # 2061 posted                                 I've heard there are compatability issues on what wheel size WILL or WILL NOT fit on Lincoln front rotors on a foxbody... I have 17x8 Cobra's on 245/45/17's now that fit perfect... Can I go WIDER/BIGGER??? -------------------- http://www.cafords.com/cgi-bin/album.pl?album=00002061 Posts: 141 | From: East Bay, CA | Registered: Nov 2002  |  : chosen1 ¯ Member # 1906 posted                              SVO/Lincoln front rotors will NOT work with the Ford '98 & '99+ Cobra, Y2K Cobra R wheels, and '97+ GT 17" wheels. These wheels SHOULD mount up but you wont be able to use the centercap because of the taller hat on these rotors. oh yeah....'98 cobra and the Bullitt wheels will not mount up. You can use wheel spacers (like half inch) but you may need longer studs. -------------------- 1967 Fastback.

So that basically limits me to 17x8 and 18x8 wheels w/o speacers... That sucks!
