wats the backspacing on the rims? cuz ur fender isnt the only thing u need to worry about but as long as theyre designed for a stang like the ones from americanmuscle then u should be good besides u gotta test fit them anyway just throw a wheel on there and you will be able to tell

If it doesn't fit up right, you can always add back spacers. As for rolling the fenders...I would say HELLS YESSS!!!

there is an irs bolt that might need to be cut down but that should be the only mod, might have to roll the fender since those are cut stock springs too.

Some 03-04 came with a thick IRS bolt. If yours did you will have to do what DSG said.. Or you can do what I did and these are the only ones, I would go with. They are from Lightning Force Performance and cost around 100.00 tell them your with Wicked Stangs and should get a discount.

I have 335's under mine now.....I did roll the fenders and have different rims and have no clue what the back spacing is.....Good luck. I did have to shave down the IRS Bolt quite a bit too.
