I was looking around for 1st gen wheels and ran across somebody who had changed their 4 lug to the 5 lug second gen hub? Are the hub assemblies interchangable or do you think he was running a 4 to 5 lug adapter? I like the options better for the 5 lug wheels... WAYYYY NICER.. Any Ideas??

I asked about this in the first gen forum too.I guess there used to be a company that made 5 lug rotors for the first gen at one time.I heard they stock making them now tho.You might be able to adapt T2 brakes on a FB but not sure.Just run a SE brake setup and buy some 4x114 wheels.

I'm planning on doing this to my second Gen! I was told that i would have to replace the lower arms the rotors and calipers. I'm planning on doing it too. I would much rather have the 16inch.

If you have a Non-SE bolt pattern another option is get some custom rims from a 4 bolt mustang.They are 4x108 and will bolt to a 4x110 pattern.Just check the lugs once and a while and make sure they are still tight.I hear they work awesome tho.I want to find some nice 16's from one for mine.
