This link may have some good info on brake upgrades. I haven't read the whole thing, so it may or may not. It's a start.

Sorry I didn't explain it very well, I was using a school computer and didn't have much time to write the thread.

I'm planning on purchasing a 1992 Mustang GT fastback this summer and a set of Epic Triad 20x8.5 wheels for it. I didn't realize that they're actually small truck/SUV wheels and have a 6 bolt pattern. I liked the way it lookes so much though that I thought it would be worth looking into a unit that would attach to the axle, I think the '92 has a four bolt pattern (my dad's '89 has a four bolt pattern), and would have a six bolt pattern on it so I can use these wheels.

I wasn't for shure if you could buy these at an automotive store or off the internet but thought it would be better if I found out before getting them custom machined at a local machine shop (God that would be expensive!)

GTJules99: I wasn't able to get to the link (something with my computer not the server)

Thanx

It would be best to rethink your swap. I haven't seen these rims, but they better be the best rims ever if you're going to a 6 bolt. The problem is that you will have to get the spindles custom made to put up front and a mess of machining out back.

I'd keep looking and do a Cobra 5 lug swap. That's a bolt out/bolt in procedure, the hi po brake parts are plentiful and it will cost you a whole lot less $
