Don't mean to hijack your thread but i thought i'd toss in a question relating to rims.

I own a stock 99 and was wondering whats the largest size tire/rim I could be able to fit?

Wrong. Our bolt pattern is 5x115, a mustang is 5x114.3. It's a small difference, but nothing I would want to put on my car. It's still an added stress on the studs.

check out the Tire Rack website, it has a function that you can view all different rims on your car. That site has all the factory specs listed for bolt pattern and backspacing etc.
That is a sweet Grand Prix in that picture!
My last car was a GP, but it got stolen in May.

The mustang bolt patter does work on our cars. The difference is so minute that you cant even tell there is a difference. I doubt there is any added stress on the lugs.
