Default Need help n select the right wheel

Hi guys i need help in selecting the right wheel - slick combo for my 1995 mustang gt. i have a source for purchasing goodyear eagle slicks quite cheaply. Only problem is there for a 15 inch wheel. The stock wheel is 16x7

Question 1 : Will a 15 inch wheel fit over the stock brake calipers ?

#2: the slicks are 26 1/2 x 10 x 15 what would be the best width rim for this tire (non wrinkle wall)

#3: what would the back spacing have to be for this combo

Any help will be greatly appreiciated

15's will fit stock brakes.. and since they are only 10" wide u don't really need a very wide rim...backspacing shouldn't be a problem.. just pick yourself up some ol stock 15's rims off a 95 v6.. they do make em... www.stangparts.com
