Will the factory 17 inch bullets from an s197 fit on a 68 coupe with out any issue?

you will need 1" spacer plates to fix the back spacing

Thanks

Do wheels from any other generation mustangs fit without a spacer?

I have a 67 and I had to use a 1.5 inch spacer for the fronts to fit for my s197 wheels

How do they fit? I've alway been sceptical of spacers. Seems like they would put extra force on the end of the studs. What spacers did you buy?

I bought mine on ebay and they had holes that slid over your existing studs and then they had their own studs on the spacers

something like this

New edge bullitts will fit better(and look better IMO) than the S197 ones will. The offset is different on them, but will still require a 1" spacer.
