- In this video I show you how the 17x8 and 17x9 Foxbody Mustang Pony replica rims fit on my car. Only slight modifications need to be made in order to make them fit perfectly! I also provide an update on the 1977 Ford Bronco we have in the shop.

IMO every foxbody needs 17" wheels, 15" just don't look right on them! The LMR 17" 10 holes are amazing.
Just picked up some SVE 17x9/10 Saleen SC repops with the rivets.... Sure hope they fit, lol 🤞
he didnt mention the tire sizes he is using!!!LOL!!!!
Will 255/50/16 fit in the rear without doing anything
Depending on the offset of your wheels, but I think you should be ok
How to tell if a wheel/tire combo fits: Put the car on jack stands; pull out the springs, then reassemble; bolt the wheel/tire on; jack the rear end up to the bump stops. If the tire rubs anywhere, it doesn't fit. Same with the front except turn the steering wheel full lock in both directions.
Old video but informative. I'm a bit confused though. You mention 17x10 rear but your video description states 17x9. Which is it? Also, what seller/brand are the wheels, where did you buy them? Thanks in advance.
Sorry about that. The fronts are 17x8 and rear are 17x10. I bought them second hand so I am not sure where they came from originally...?
I do apologies if its been answered. I dont see the tire sizes that are on them?
275/40 rear and 235/45 front 👍
@@KASLCustoms thank you boss
This makes me feel so much better about buying the SVE 03' Cobra wheels for my 88 GT vert. Thank you!
Good tips on the wheels and fitment. The 17" x 9" Cobra R wheels (American Muscle) shod with Nitto 555 in 245/45 17 on my 1989 Spot LX rub on the lower inside area of the front fenders, only when making sharp turns into a driveway. When the time comes for new shoes I'll go to 245/40 17 and hopefully that tire to fender won't be a problem any more.
Your channel is so underrated bro 😎
Awe thx so much!!!
Do you think ARP 3" long bolts fit inside the wheel lug cap?
I'm not 100% sure... I'm going to guess that it would be tight
Thanks for the video. I have the chrome 17x10 pony wheels and I’m waiting on the 17x8 to be back in stock for the front. This video eased my mind on installing them.
Question- what size tire are you running on the rear?
Right on thx buddy! Rear is a 275/40/17 👍
I guess the vertical has a built in speed governor with the shock missing. Haha!
I really should not have beat up my cars...
Haha! That was supposed to say convertible.... so much for autocorrect...
Lol - that makes WAY more sense 🤣
Do the 18” Markers Garage Reimagined Cobra Rims fit?!!!! 😆
Lol I’m not sure. I wish I had the money to own a set tho…
Remember: '91-93 Mustangs got a revised front fender to allow for a larger tire. Using '79-90 fenders may not have these same results..
I have had a lot of foxes and I never knew that and I’m a old body man
@@ajcates9136 '87-93 got a different roof skin too.
Lmr has the whole deal with nice tires for 1500 shipped
Great Job Brotherman !
What Lowering Springs did you put on the convertible !?
And where did buy your 17 pony wheels from !?
Thanks
Keep Up The Great Work !
🤘😎🤘🌴☀️🔥🎸👍
Thx sir! I used Eibach sportlines for springs. I actually bought the pony’s locally from another fox owner
@@KASLCustoms Nice 👍
How low did the springs drop your stang?? 1.25 or 1.50 ??
I use to only use Eibach Springs on my Fox's in the mid 90's and it lowered them down 1.50 !!
It was at least 1.5” 👍
Anyone no the tires sizes?
Those are beautiful…And those fronts are nice and tucked…That looks great…I’m sorry I just woke up, did you mention the tire size front and back??
Thx buddy! 235/45 front and 275/40 rear 👍
VERY NICE PONY'S. I HAVE OEM 16IN PONY'S ON MY 87 NOTCH WITH BBK SPRING. AND MAN IS IT LOW, NO RUBING, MY TIRE SIZE IS 225 /55/16🤗🤗 AND LOVE THE VID
Thx buddy!!!
I'm running the same LMR 17x8/10 ponies on my coupe with nutto 315/35/17 on the rear and very minimal rubbing on the inside wheel well. Nothing too worry about. I did have to roll my rear fender lips tho
Awesome! Wow buddy, those are big boots!!! I love it 🙌
You didn’t have to use spacer’s & longer studs for it to fit? I have same set up but with a 305 tire. Thank you!
No sir, no spacers and stock studs 👍
@@KASLCustoms Thank You brother! Keep the great content coming
You’re welcome! Will do 👍
Will a 17x9 rub on u turn or will a 8mm spacer help from having any rubbing issues out front
It all depends on the offset of the wheel. I had 17x9” cobra reps on my coupe and they actually rubbed on the inside of the rim on the lower control arm at full turn. I have 18x9” Saleen reps on my coupe now and I don’t have any rubbing issues at all
@@KASLCustoms Sounds good thank you might run a 8mm spacer I ordered the Saleens from late model restoration the fronts are Front:
Wheel Diameter - 17"
Wheel Width - 9"
Lugs - 4
Offset - +20mm
Backspacing - 5.95"
Weight - 25 lbs
Nice! If I remember correctly, I think mine are the same, just 18” 👍
You sound like the mom in Bobby's world. Can you say yep dont you know
Answered all my questions thank you for the good video!
You’re very welcome my friend!
Very nice! For a 90 GT convertible, front has smaller opening than 91-93. Do you know of any issues or adjustments needed for the 17x8?
Thx bud. I didn’t have to make any at all 🤙
Couldnt u run the quad shock with a back spacer and in return have a better look by staying close to the lip of the rear fender ?… i think brew2l did something close to this so he could run the quad shock.
I needed a lot of clearance and I’m not sure spacers would have got me there…
That vert is sweet man and the channel is great . Keep putting them out and ill keep watching !
Awesome thx buddy!!!
Will the factory center cap fit on those wheels. I think it would look sick with the pony in the center.
Yes they do but in all honesty, I don’t like them as much 🤷♂️. At first I didn’t like the blank caps but now I actually prefer them 😆.
I'm getting these wheels for my 93 vert. I'm getting some tires that hug the lip more, I don't like when the lip sticks out. Your vert is badass either way 😎
Nice!! Thx buddy 👊
LOL who needs those quad shocks??
Hahahaha exactly 😉
I have 18's on the front and back of my 92 LX. Rear fenders had to be rolled and a spacers inserted. 285/35vr18 on the rear and 235/18vr18 on the front. No quad shocks. Manzo lowering springs (came on car and will be changed soon). Just installed Koni orange shock and struts, SVE bump steer, SVE caster camber plates and Eibach front sway bar.
Nice buddy! I too have 18’s on my 92 coupe 👌. Your car sounds awesome 💪
@@KASLCustoms this is her if you wanna check it out. Great car: th-cam.com/video/UwP65Dec7IE/w-d-xo.html
Awesome thx bud!
This some great content thanks man. I like it.🤙🏼
Thanks so much my friend!
Pony’s look great man!! Looking for that same set up for my fox! Great looking car and that Bronco is lit 🔥.
Thanks so much buddy! Yes I agree, I love the enhanced OEM look that the 17’s bring 🤜🤛
Is it a 10” wheel in the rear? You have 17x9 in the description but said 17x10 in the video.
17x9 in the front and 17x10 in the rear
This is the same route I’ve wanted to do for a long time as I’m a purest.Only issue I have is removing the quads as I like to get a little sideways from time to time. Are you able to get sideways without any issues(wheel hop) Looks great btw!
Thx bud! Yes I have and like I said, the quad shocks were so worn out that I don’t even think they were doing anything anyway… that said, when I have been taken part in a little more “spirited driving” I didn’t notice any hop or anything 👍
Awesome video! Your car looks great with those wheels! I would say for the pre-91 cars, rolling of the front fenders MAY be required.
Thx buddy! Yeah you may be right on that. I haven’t had these wheels on an older fox so I’m not 100% sure how they would fit…?
@@KASLCustoms
18's work as well which I have on a 93 hatch
Thank you so much for this video Brother! I was truly wondering what needed to be done.... Would a wheel spacers on the rear help clearance issues with the quad shock? That Bronco is totally Sic by the way! 💯 👊🏾
Thx buddy! No, there was no way the quad shock was going to work. Also, if I were to push the wheel any further out, I would definitely need to start looking at rolling the fender lip as well 👍
@@KASLCustoms Makes sense... 👊🏾
back to the fox body -- where is the Cooooool bronco / the bandit ( :
Hey buddy, you need to watch till the end - that’s where I did the Bronco update 🤙
@@KASLCustoms my wife tells me the same thing LOL giddy up on the bronco
🤣👍
That was nice to see the information with load on the car. Jacking up the car on the wheels makes that lift nice for that kind of look.
Yessir! Thx bud!
Great info on the wheels. That Bronco is wicked! I knew it would be a different truck once it was running right.
Thx buddy!!! Yes it rocks now!
Where did you buy those wheels for the Mustang?
Hey bud - I actually bought them used however I believe these came from Late Model Restoration
@KASL Customs I love it it looks good I like the center caps Nice and clean with nothing on it
@@KASLCustoms Are you selling them?
Thx buddy! I agree. No sorry I’m not selling them
@@KASLCustoms Not a problem thank you for responding back have a great holiday
Great video thank u!
You bet sir! Thx so much!!!
So are you going to lower the rear of the stang? Or keeping the raked look?
I’m toying with it. The tough part is, when I have my kids in the back, it sits flat 😂
@@KASLCustoms Lmaooo... makes sense during those times.
😂👍
thanks for the video and the info
Anytime my friend!
did you consider spacers for the rear?
I did not use any spacers as I did not have any need. If I did ever require the use of spacers, I would 100% replace the stock wheel studs with something a lot stronger and would also only entertain a very slight amount of spacer. Anything beyond a 1/4” I think I would be looking into more of a proper fix 👍
@@KASLCustoms what are you tire sizes on front and rear?
235/45 front and 275/40 rear
Man I miss those wheels, they look so good. You have way more tailpipe clearance then I did.
Hahahaha - thanks for letting me buy them buddy 😉👊
I'm rubbing tail pipes also. Mac catback
What size tire/wheel?
@@KASLCustoms 17x10, 275/40
I should note, they are SVE anniversary wheels, not Ponys. But I'm looking to swap them.
Awesome video love the ponies
Thx my friend 💪
You don't quad shocks as long as you have aftermarket control arms
That's not true, they serve a purpose!👈💯 Don't believe everything you see on the internet!
@@johndoe-zb8bm
I've been around mustangs and have some for more than 30 years. As long has you have good aftermarket upper and lower control arms they will surprise what a quad will ever do. If you want a hard launch then buy spherical bushings otherwise polyurethane will be good
@@joshh4427 What ever,in 56 been around also,I beg to differ! Do you my man,but that's not true at all! Maybe for a stocker,not for anything modified!
@@johndoe-zb8bm
Sorry you felt that way. Night and day difference. I would never owe a stocker. Always modified. One day you will change over and wished you would of done it long time ago. Fyi I worked for Ford on saac and saleens. Nothing wrong on keeping yours just saying don't knock it until you try it
@@johndoe-zb8bm all you need is maximum motorsports lower control arms in the back. The adjustable ones so you can choose your height aswell.
Love the videos! short and sweet not long winded like others 👍 I have a 92 vert and was wondering.. do you think you would still have to take the quad shocks off if it was a 17/9?
Thank you!!! It all depends on the offset of the wheel. That said, I had 17x9 cobra R’s on a 92 and all I had to do was flip my quad shock 👍
