    2011-14 Mustang wheels on 73 vert

    OK MS FYI’ers puzzle me this;

    2011-201 Mustang “Y”apoke wheels 18 x 8 +44mm offset to be mounted  my 73 Mustang Vert.
    What size spacers should be best on this application??

    I did a quick search and couldn’t find a wheel chart for 71-73 mustangs but I’m sure there’s something out there.   This picture shows what you have now and a little math will tell you what you need.  Just need to know what the best fitting back spacing is on the 71-73 mustangs.

    Hey cool RTM!! I can take the 15 in  American racing torque thrust D’s and get a backspacing off of them.
    And a little mathematics will give me the answer.

    Thanks again, I was almost beginning to think we were playing stump the forum,🤣

    My 2001 Mustang rims on my 69 have a 1" spacer on and that's about perfect.  You could put 1" of washers behind the rim on a few of the studs and see how it looks and if theres any clearance issue.
