It's been one of those days, for 2 days now, and will continue tomorrow!
I have 15" heavy wire spoked wheels on the Mustang, only the fronts were on, I had steel wheels on because I had to drive it in the snow, and I have 295x55x15's on the rear, pushing 235x50x15's on the front does not go thru any snow!!! So I have stock 14" wheels on the rear. Ok , I was going down the avenuw (cement road) and hit a pot hole and broke 10 spokes! drove it home slowly, 16 miles.
Not a problem, I'll put the rear tires back on, and put the stock ones on the front! What! They don't fit over the brakes. Yesterday I called 12 yards and only one place had 14" steel wheels, and they swear they'll over the caliper, which is stock!
Today I told the wife I have no choice, I have to buy them, till we get Tn, the we'll get new wheels. Just couldn't wait, we move next week! Rrrrr I had to drive the Mustang to get the wheels, about 8 miles to get them, about 6 miles I past a yard I forgot to call, I pulled in and they have to uglest wheel Ford made for the Mustang, and they came off a '89, cool, they'll fit, mines a '87, $20.00 each and out the door, he garanteed they'll fit!
Went home stuffed the 2 tires in the car and off to get them put on......They were busy, and I to make runs, so I left the tires to be switched & balanced, I went picked them up,and drop 3 off for the trash, I went home and put them on.......They DON'T FIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, I called the tire place and told them to pull the A/R wheel I left to be trashed, and take the tire off and that I will be there at opening to have it put on the car, I'll have 1 different wheel, but it'll work till we get down there!
Now I have to have them dismount the tires so I can return the wheels. I have to eat the money I paid to mount & balance them.

Oh, last year I was driving down the highway and the rubber decide to leave the rim, and it recked the wheel, so the wire wheels replace the American racing wheels. I don't want to buy new wheels yet because I have everything ready to put disk's in rear, and 5 lug all around. Mustangs come with 4 lug 80's till '93

All This and I still trying to get things ready to pack.
