We'll crap the wheels I am looking into are available in a 17x8, but they have 5.95 backspace. So.... what about theses guys that are putting the mustang 5 spokes on em? Are they available in 7" cuz I can only find 8s:dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow::dontknow:

the mustang wheels won't fit completely over the hub and seat down without modification. Some guys are running spacers to make them fit for both the backspacing and hub problem I think. 17X8 you can probably run longer studs and a somewhat wide spacer (possible up to 1"" to make it work). If you do a search there is some long threads about 17" wheels that can probably help you understand what all is involved with the mustang wheels on a "A" body for both front and rear.
