wheel question

[92scharged]

I want to install 17 x 9.5 rims all round on my 1992 mustang conv.
Will I have any clearance issues.
Anyone running this same size of rims.

I plan on running low profile tires on the front and 255 or 275 in the back. Don't know if 235 will fit the rims for the front.

your input will be greatly appreciated.

thanks

i run 17x9.5 inch cobra r rims with either 255 or 275's cant remember right off hand b/c its been so long since i put tires on my stang, but the only clearance problem i seem to have is when i fully turn my car to the right, my right hand tire seems to rub just a little on a downhill slope. i also have an inch and a half lowering kit on my car to. the only thing the tire hits though is the false fender well for the cold air, it not for that it would run fine.
I also have friends who have 93 back mustang running the same size rims/tires as me and they seem to work fine for them with just a little scrub as what i described. they have stock ride height to a two inch lowering kit on their stangs...maybe this can help ya out a little bit.

nice car,(besides the chrome fender outlines) you could just get 8.5 wide or maybe even 9.0 just to make sure it doesnt rub

I have 245's on a lowered 89 and it rubs a little bit too.
