    Your 75 may or may not be disc brakes. If it is, the center hub will be bigger front & rear. As long as the wheels off the 67 Mustang are designed for disc brakes, they will fit. Most aftermarket wheels will work on disc, but wheels like the stock Ford GT wheels will not. The centers can be turned out to make them fit though.

    Mine has drums all the way around. And the wheels I might buy are Weld Racing wheels..they just happen to be on a 67 Mustang.

    Ok that eliminates most of the things I was going to say. :) I bought some Magnum 500's that were on a 65 Mustang (drum brake) and the front wheels would not clear my calipers because of the inside contour. Oddly enough they were actually genuine Motor Wheel wheels too. Anybody want them? :evilsmile

    Hey mav91stang: I have 275/60/15s on my 72 Mav.. they are on torque thrust rims that are 15x7 with a 3.5 back spacing. I have 1/2in clearance between the sidewall and the leaf spring.. I have 2in clearance between front of tire( tread) and the start of the fender radias and 2in clearance at the tread in the back.. I can slide my big hands- flat- up the sidewall and not touch the outer lip of the fender well. So far no problems and that was after I put 500 pounds in the trunk directly over the rear end..Keeping my finger crossed..TTFN(y)
