the mustang i think was 61" i took 3.5 and 11.5= -15" = 46" i can measure to make sure. but it should be right. +9" for the off set in the tires = total rear width of 55"

these. they have a 4.5" outside offest. if you use the jeep grand cherokee they have a 3" outside off set so that would make the wheel base 52" or 3" narrower. if you use my #s.

I believe Ford Mustang have a different bolt pattern(bolt spacing) from a Jeep Grand Cherokee. What year Jeep GC? are you having the wheel bolt pattern modified? I will have to check to see if the patterns are indeed different.

Ok I just looked at the Jeep Grand C wheels, They are nice, I wonder what they could be had for, They look nicer than some of the mustang wheels that I have seen.
