Whatcha looking for, spec wise? I know they're 5-lug, and have the lug pattern to fit the '99-up. Backspacing and offset though, couldn't tell ya.

How sweet a deal you getting? Will I be kicking myself if I hear it? (I paid $1000 for my set, with the tires mounted...all I had to do was put them on the car)

They are 17x8, 4.5" bolt pattern, 5.72" back spacing. {Needs spacers for early Mustangs like the MII.}

Sounds like I can get them to fit!! That's what I like to hear...

As for the deal, and nothing is set in stone yet, but you guy's will hate me...

The guy that has them bought them for his "wife's car".. He had them put on and she didn't like how they looked so they came right back off...

This same fellow came to look at a Lincoln I'm selling.. I got a a REALLY sweet deal on it ($200), but It just isn't what my MARK IV was..(wiping tears from cheek)

As we were chatting I mentioned that I was looking for wheels for my II (that he needed to stop drooling on).. So when it came time to talk price on the Lincoln I just told him to make me and offer... Let's just say I like his offer so far...
