Default mustang rims questions....not sure which forum to post it in

I have some-one that is interested in purchasing our mags off of an EB farimont ghia. Would they fit an early 70s mustang?

maybe not.... i put my 16" el tickfords on my 66 stang.... fronts would go on (had been converted to later disc brake setup), but the rear axles used a big centre, and the wheels would not go on. i have seen people running the 16's before on stangs, they look quite good imo.

Early 70's Mustang have the small hub front/rear, Falcons changed to larger hubs mid XB. The wheels will fit, but the hub won't be carrying the weight.

I had EL 15" chasers on my mustang whilst I was in between wheels, and had no issues whatsoever....
