97 Mountineer
I did a search and cant find what im looking for so i figured id ask. I have a 97 Mountineer, looking at the 18x9 Saleen replicas i noticed they are 5x7.5 bolt pattern and with a 24mm backspace. Will this fit? I have the AWD if it makes and difference. :)

Beat me to it Todd. I was looking for a pic of you truck to post, but you've all ready done it
 






They look like the Saleen XP8 wheels, in white.
 


















Look into a good set of 1/4" spacers for the front. I still rub the sway bar with them, but it would be much worse without them.
 






I have a 2wd 92, and I have the 18x9's up front (18x10's rear). No Spacers...had to SLIGHTLY modify the spindle so I would be able to put the center caps on.

I do rub on the sway bar at FULL LOCK, but I don't care, I'm so low that I rub on the fender WAY before that happens....lol
