Heres a quote from the listing "I am selling my drag slicks already mounted on a set of racing rims. never been used, both sets brand new. Have never even been on my car to see what they look like. they are 26 x 10 x 15 with backspacing at 4.50. asking 550, if I have to ship I am asking for 600 and I will take care of the shipping and if local i will go lower than 550. thank you "

I think they will fit, but what is the lug pattern? Stangs are 5x4.5". Check your existing dimensions of tires and back-spacing of rear wheel to confirm off-set.

Thanks Jazzer, thsi is what he said "86 mustang but it has a 5 lug conversion for 03-06"

It would be best to confirm back-spacing of your existing wheels, as I believe it is nearer to 5.5" (could be wrong) This will help you determine if the new slicks will rub on the inside-back wall of fender. Remember the clearance will be less when axle is articulated when going over a bump at an angle.

NOTE: Be careful on Craigs List. There are a HUGE amount of flakes, losers as the site is free to list so attracts them like flies.

haha thanks Jazzer. Dont have to worry about scams cuz its local and meeting up

. Hes willing to take 400 and hell drop it off. Good deal?

Sounds like a good deal. A fresh set of DR's and rims to boot

I am a bit concerned about back-spacing, so be sure to confirm.

Easy to exchange for the Polksters driveway [8D]
