    Are you sure those arent front wheel drive offset. Usually when 7 or 7.5 is the widest they go its because they are front wheel drive offset.

    So... without taking the wheels off, what's the easiest way to I.D the spindles?

    Can you post pics?

    Thanks,

    If the spacers are 1 1/4" then it's almost certain there are Fox components under the car. With a picture of the front caliper, I could probably tell you if it's a Fox or Sn95. If the rear is drum then it's a Fox most likely. All Sn95's are rear disc.

    The stock wheel for most GT's were 7" so 7.5" is a bit bigger, but you will limit your tire choices. The big question on the Proline wheels is what are the offsets offered in your bolt pattern. The odds are they are FWD wheels, but depending on the offset will determine if they will fit your Fox.

    Just for reference LRS and others sell wheels that will definitely fit your Fox, look great, and are pretty inexpensive too.
