Lug pattern question

I was wanting to order some 20 inch rims and tires for my car, the tires are Pirelli Pzero 245/35/20.. would this be a problem for fitting in the wheel wells? the rims im looking at range from 20" x 8.5 " to 20" x 9.5"
also the lug pattern for a 1993 Tbird LX anyone know it?

Re: Lug pattern question

there's a small choice of rims available for the tbird. you'll most likely need some custom spacers if you do find some 20" rims in our bolt pattern.

Sure, those tires will fit in the wheel wells.
Whether the wheels and/or tires will rub is dependent upon the backspacing / offset of the wheels.

My tire/wheel combo will fit on any stock '93-'97 Thunderbird/Cougar.
Ford had a different spindle design for the '89-'92s.
