I am guessing these would fit my 95 LSC. Right?
They are off a 95 T-bird.
Are these wheels pretty common

They'll fit. That's a little bit shorter of a tire than I like on a MN12 or a Mark, but not too bad. They look like a run of the mill Cobra R type, but I haven't seen those centercaps before..

looks like a pretty good price, but its hard to tell what kind of shape the tires are in, in the pictures.

IF those are Ford Racing 17 x 7.5" wheels in the 5 x 4.25" bolt pattern, then they're pretty rare, and out of production. The may just be aftermarket copies though, not OEM wheels.

Thats what I was thinking about the center caps. It could be a sticker or something special he did to them but peole around here really dont mod thier vehicles aside from hieght rims and tint for some reason, so Im thinking the center caps are origanal

I finally got ahold of the guy and they are Genuine Ford rims, came stock on his 95 t-bird. That center caps is the ford oval. Im going to look at them on Sunday, he is out of town right now.
Both MN12 chassis' so there should be no fitment issues right?

Are you all sure these will fit my non converted bolt pattern? We have a 5x108, right?
Im showing the 95 t-bird have a 5x114.3 everywhere I look.

I just want to double check before I buy these.
Thanks

NEVERMIND
I found it, it says 89-on is 5x108
I cant afford these unless they work and I can sell my current wheels sooner or later.

95 tbird definitely has 5x108 or 5x4.25". They will fit just fine.

I GOT EM! I GOT EM!

They are very nice with good tread as well, very little rash on one of them, other than that I need to clean them up a bit and get em mounted and snap some pics so I can start catching some comments on em'!
Should be done by tomorrow evening.
You'll see the pics come up.
