My son purchased a 2005 Mustang GT with 9,000 original miles and wants to purchase new tires and wheels. He will be running a 275-60-15 MT Drag Radial.

He is going to buy a 15x8 wheel but were not sure what backspace we should get.

So the question is: with a stock wheel well and suspension what backspace wheel would work the best on his 2005 GT

The stock wheels on an 05 are 17X8s. Check the backspace on the stock wheel. That should give you a good point of reference to go from.
