Rim Size

lwhitetrash88l · March 26th, 2007, 03:05 AM

Hey guys, anyone know what size rim is suppose to come on a 96 base model mustang?

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 09:04 AM

for a V6 it would would be 15"...a GT i'm not sure, might be 16" or 17"...? someone else might wana answer that..

EDIT: oh, "96 base model mustang", I guess that'd be referring to V6...so yeah, 15"

GreenFaleen · March 26th, 2007, 10:17 AM

15's

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 11:52 AM

hey I also have a question relating to this actually...

if stock rims are 15", what size are the stock tires? 245/45-15 or something...? whatever that means....

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 12:09 PM

I think it might be 205/65R15...does that make sense?

GreenFaleen · March 26th, 2007, 01:19 PM

more than likely 205's...

i'll break it down on the tire thing for you guys.

lets take a 245/45/17 for a referance point

245- how wide the tire is
45- how muct tire you have between the lip of the rim and the top of your tire
17- wheel size.

and all that other stuff like Z ZR and what not is just the speed rating.

how do they figure the 245/45 is it cm?

no it's in inches

GreenFaleen · March 26th, 2007, 02:03 PM

lol well I knew it wasn't inches, but I was just making sure.

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 02:22 PM

um...that can't possibly be in centimeters, 245 centimeters is like about 3 yards. I don't know about you guys but I've never seen a 3 yard wide tire =\

I'm pretty sure it'd be in millimeters. (one tenth of a centimeter)

but thanks for that explanation.

and also, what lug pattern fits on a 94 V6? and what is "offset" and "BSM"?

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 09:10 PM

anyone?

5 x 4.5 fits.

the offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel.
(yes i googled this to get the correct info)

not sure what bsm means though

Murderjetz · March 26th, 2007, 09:44 PM

okay...cool. thanks buddy!
