MM&FF, in their tire article (the one about how big a tire to put on a certain rim) they stated that if you wanted to go with a bigger tire up front (I guess they were referring to > 235) to upgrade to 91-92 Mustang wheel wells. I have both a '79 and a '91 and yes I can back them up and say that the '91 does have more space b/c of how the wheel well is shaped and how it goes around the tire (where the well is attached to on the car).
