As a general rule of thumb the 05+ mustang wheels fit better due to the off sets being closer to the svo
If you blink at the end of the straight away you'll miss the twisties and what fun would that be!

When i bought them the choices were 87-93 and 94-and up. They fit fine. No rubbing. I had the rears machined a little so they didnt stick out to far. Rolled the rear quaters too. No problems at all.

Yes.......i agree.They are a great looking wheel on the SVO. Esco's white SVO is a sexy looking ride! Actually all his cars are awsome!
Here is a pic of mine w/ 99 Cobra wheels. I need to modify the front stock rotors to accommodate the centers.

I have run 3 sets of rims, including the stockers. Here are the 97 Cobras that I ran for a few years and the current TSW Nurburgring wheels. The 5mm difference in offset between the Cobras and TSW's made a much larger difference than expected, IMHO. Personally I prefer the TSW offset (+35mm), but of course, eh?? Both sets of wheels are 17x8 running 245/45R17's for reference.

Svono50, the tsw wheels do they tuck in far enough to not rub the fender lips? Are you still using stock svo front suspension? Still on the stock springs?
