    The problem is with the size of the wheels. They have to be large enough (diameter and offset) to cover the brakes you are installing. I spoke with Steve about this system months ago. He informed me that even some aftermarket wheels (torq thrusts II's) will not fit due to the curve of the spokes.

    Yup, this is why I passed on a SN95 setup before, I should have taken it tho.

    My current 5 lug wheels wouldnt fit on the SN95 setups, so I was looking for a 85 up set. Now, i'll settle for either set I can get for the Mustang
