Mach 1 rims?


In the near future ( within the year) I plan on adding Mach 1 rims to my notchback and I just had a question that I was hoping you guys could answer, I was wondering if I could get away with using the SVO front rotors and 5 lug rear shafts ( The 400 kit) or if I will need to use SN95 front spindles and such to clear these rims? Thanks

Get the kit and use longer studs and wheel spacers...then it's game time.

get the SN95 stuff... you won't regret it.

If I could do it over again I would have just bought the m2300 brake kit. Great brakes and tons of wheel choices.

I guess I might go with the SN95 stuff if the right deal comes along but the prospect of spending only 400 to convert is quite appealing.

Mach 1 wheels won't clear the dust cap on the SVO/LSC rotor. You need the sn95 spindles. They are cheap to buy, I got mine complete with calipers, hubs, rotors, dust caps, harware, shields, etc from Chuckrans in Bridgewater for $150 delivered to my friend's shop. They took them off the car too. If your car is lowered it will ride a lot nicer too because the sn95 spindle pulls the fox down down and inch. Its the right way to do it. Well worth the swap and then you can run any wheel that fits a 94+. The M2300K kit is nice, but not made anymore. With the sn95 spindles you either need the 94+ or steeda balljoints or you can use washers to make up the space on the ball joint.

Well thanks everyone, I guess I will probably be on the look out for SN95 this summer. And SPDoherty it will probably be a good 8-10 months before I get around to doing the mach 1 rims so I wont be selling the Cobras for a lil while.
