I'm going to have the full Hotchkis TVS with Dr Diff's 13" brembo-style calipers in front and 11.7" Cobra calipers in the rear. My rear end is stock A-body length.

Thanks through my research tonight, that's what I've been finding out. I was able to get more information about the wheels above. fronts are 18 x 8's with a 7mm offset and rears are 18 x 10's with a 0mm offset. He was running spacers on his Mustang so I might ask for them if I decide to pick them up tomorrow as I know the fronts won't fit. I believe rears should be able to fit fine. Worst case scenario I'll trim the lip. If I pick these up tomorrow, I might just order some new 245/40/18 tires for the front and 255/40/18's for the rear on clearance from TireRack (trying to save some money instead of forking over $2500 for new wheels and tires). I'll probably sell the fronts on CL for cheap (to recover some money) and save the 275/35/18 for the future (in case I want to mini-tub or use offset shackles).



My car has the very same Front and Rear Dr Diff brake package. Car is a '68 Barracuda. Front is 255/40-18 on 18x9 with a +35mm offset. This is a fitment for a 2005-2014 Mustang. Wheels cost me $150 each from "Late Model Restoration". http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/item/SVE-1007FC/2005-12-Mustang-Flat-Black-SVE-Drift-18X9


Rear I am running 295/40-18 on 18x10 with +22mm offset. This is a fitment for a 1994-2004 Mustang and cost $160 each. I am running a 1/2" spacer, but my axle is narrowed 7/8" per side from stock. These wheels would fit perfectly on my car with the stock axle width. My axle is narrowed to fit a 12" +25mm offset wheel in the center of the wheel well. The inner wheel housing is flush to the frame AKA mini-tub. So I can run 15x10 1" offset and fit 325/50-15 under the car. Likewise I can run 19x12 and a 325/30-19.

Only issue with the front on the SVE wheels is I will not be able to run the plastic wheel center caps or I will have to make something special that will fit over the grease cap.

Here is a decent set of pictures showing how the wheels sit:
