I have a 1990 Ford Mustang GT with stock suspension and i was wondering if 17" black bullit deep dish would fit in the rear. The rims size is 17 x 10.5 and the backspacing is 6.85" (174mm). The tire size is 315/35/17.

If anyone has as any experiance with this set up or have tried it but it wouldnt fit, would let me know before i buy them and found out myself.

thanks
Nick

I've seen them fit with 275s... not sure about 315s tho..

also 275s on a 10.5 looks funny

Ive done it and it looks awsome!But is does take some work. If your not prepared to make them fit then i dont recomend you getting them. But 275-40s on 17x9s look really good as well with no problems with fit or rubbing.

here's mine. 18x10 6.3 BS with fox length axles. No problems except a little massaging of the lower, front of the rear wells. Fronts are 18 x 9 5.8 BS. Rear tire size is 285-35-18. Clears the coilovers front and rear too.
