By modification does that include wheel spacers? I have 05-09 bullitts but running a 2 inch spacer all around. Although 2 inches is a lot, u need a smaller one up front (ex.1/2 inch)

I'd rather not have to spend the extra $$$ for spacers. Are there some wheels that won't fit over the front hubs?

i'm pretty sure they all fit and i don't understand why you would need spacer's i had a 93 ranger with 17'' 96 cobra rims and they fit fine,BTW ferris which mustang rims are you thinking about using?
The 05 and newer Mustangs use a different offset wheel than the previous Mustang. I saw a 2004 or older Mustang with current Mustang V6 16" wheels on it and those wheels sat farther inward from the bodywork by about 2". So I'll be looking for 94 to 04 wheels.

On the 2wd's things get tight around the front hub reguardless of year of Mustang wheel.
I do kinda like these:

I am not sure what the pattern was, but there were Foxbody Mustangs with five lug wheels... I don't remember if it was Saleens or Cobra's that had them. Long odds of running into a set anyways...

I have late 90's GT wheels and all i did was cut a hole in the front center cap to clear the 4wd hub. My stock wheel offset was I believe +12 and these Mustang wheels are +24. Didn't think, with the right tire, it was much of a different to warrant spacers (not comfortable with spacers anyway)
That being said, I am currently running 245/65/17s and they seem to rub (only) on the upper control arm on the driver's side. May be switching to 235s soon.
