Not trying to hijack the thread. Should I make this a new thread instead?

Actually, I think I've answered my question concerning the front rotors. Looks like with some slight machining of the centers, or half inch wheels spacers, the wheels will fit.

From what I've read with the newer wheels with small center caps it's not worth it sticking with Fox brakes
Machining, messing with altered offsets, spacers, dust cover sticking out, no thanks
Plus the sn95 brakes performance will blow stock fox brakes out of the water do not yourself a huge favor and switch to sn95 brakes with 94-95 Mustang spindles

For the rear you can use some Mpv van rotors but the axle s "might" needs to be machines to fit and 1/8" spacers might be needed but then you can get off shelf rotors with warranty
I say might because some people needed to do this and some have not, I got rotors from autozone and I had to machine the s but I ended up not needing the spacers

Here's more info if you go this route
