The bolt pattern should remain the same, a 5" x 4.5" bolt circle.

I have not seen any published info yet as to the actual bolt pattern on the '05, maybe someone else has seen published information.

Those are the wheels I'm looking at getting. (It's in my sig, I called it first...........j/k) They will fit, but the offset is different. About an inch less pushing the wheels out. I contacted numerous makers of those wheels about the new offset and if they are going to make a set. No one replied, except American Racing with their Torq-Thrust II's. They said as soon as they can get their hands on an 05, they'll make a set to fit it. I'm hoping the 05's wheels are tucked under the fenders to an inch more will still fit in the wheel wells, but from the pics i've looked at, it appears an inch will push the rubber outside, which is a "ghetto" look I don't want.

5 on 4 1/2
+45mm offset

(and for those that hate metrics......25.4mm per inch)

Bolt pattern is believed to be the same. However, offset is different. This could mean that the wheels don't look right as they will appear too far inside the outside edge of the fender. As well, there is only about a 1/4" of clearance from the rim to the brake. I'm not sure the old wheels will clear the brakes.

Brake issues?

Since you say they don't fit. I fully expect that you purchase a CNC machine to make me a set of "Bullitt" style wheels to fit my 05. Thank you.

They come with Bullitts, with the proper offset to clear the brakes.
