OVERVIEW:

the use of 17" wheels such as those used on the 1994-04 Mustang Cobra. Other wheels that will clear the
calipers in this kit are Ford Racing part numbers M-1007-R58/C58/C178/D178. A 1994-04 17" x 4" mini-spare
wheel is available from Ford/Lincoln/Mercury dealers under part number F4ZZ-1K007-C or Ford Racing part
