I was just on Tire Rack and they now have the '05 Mustang --- V6 and GT --- as a searchable option for wheels and tires.

Check it out!

Sorry if this is common knowledge already. I haven't had a chance to check the forums in several days and got excited when I saw Tire Rack.

I think I would take the Mille Miglia EV-S. They are the same size and look similar to the 18" Ford fanblades we lust after. They also have a pic of them on an 03 Mach1 that looks sweet. Here are the specs:

Finish: Bright Silver Paint

Size Selected: 18x9
Price: $239 each
Estimated Availability: In Stock
Recommended Tire Size: 255/45-18
Wheel Offset: +45mm
Weight: 32.0 lbs.


Additional Specs

Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Finish Warranty: 2 Years
Country of Origin: Italy
Construction Type: 1pc. Gravity Cast

I like SSRs too, but there's no way I could ever afford it!

I can't wait till you guys buy your stangs and put those rims on them so that it'll help me decide what to get if I go aftermarket when I buy the car in the spring!!

Wardog, I know this isn't the photoshop thread, but if you are able to do it easily, would you mind doing the above pic with the EV-S rims a few posts above? Thanks!

I'd get the SSR GT3. Although if it will be possible I want the rims off of the concept more then anything. They just look so cool.

If I really had money I'd probably get Foose Type-S rims.

New member here...

Really like the OEM 18's but don't want to wait. I was hoping for the F500 wheels but offset is wrong. And the BBS wheels I decided on are not, at least according to Tirerack not available in the 18x9.

I will still hope that Verde or someone make a F500 replica with the proper offsets. Hopefully it won't take them too long. The stock wheels are in my opinion just to plain. The were off my current car in the first 100 miles.

Sorry Bryman,

I don't have photoshop or the knowledge to use it. Someone on Stangnet did that one for me.

Anyone want to chop those on a nice pic of the 05 (ie. and angle shot)? Those rims look good.

The 05's design would be complemented by thicker spokes IMO.
