I know of one distributor that will have 20 x 11's on their car, but they asked me to keep it quiet. Did they give you the offset or backspacing? Also which Weld wheel is it? Are the new series available now?
Thanks Mike

You're right the H&R car does have 19x11's in the rear. But I want to know if they had to do any custom work to make it fit and if they didn't do any chopping to make it fit, then what is the backspacing on the wheel. Hmm I wonder if someone called if they would answer these questions!

The H&R Springs GT runs 19x11R and 10x9.5 fronts.

Continental ContiSportContact 2 makes a 305/25-20 which I am going to run. I am going to run a 275/30-20 up front.

I am going to run the Weld Forge-Star 850, polished, wheel. the Forge-Star 750 is chromed. Both are forged and made especially for the '05 Mustangs.

My 20s will be 9.5"F and 11"R. I have been waiting for 12 weeks for them now. When I ordered them, they said it would be an 8-12 week wait. Now Weld says, at least 8 more weeks. "At least," are the operative words here.

The prices and sizing are in the attached listing. Weld claims a 30% lighter weight than cast wheels. The offsets are 50mmF and 55mmR.

Btw, Mike. Yes it will fit. A 315/25-19 would be killer on the 19x11. I hope someone comes out with a 315/25-20 for me in the future.

FYI, here's Weld's site. http://www.welddistribution.com/

So are the wheels in the ad 19"? Because they look like at least 20s, they really fill out the wheel wells.

Man I wish I had the money to blow you all have. 3 grand for a set of wheels without tires. You have got me beat thats for sure. Then just imagine what the tires will be, I bet if you get the nice stuff your spending about 5 grand on wheels and tires. If I had that, I sure as heck would have one of these new supercharger kits. It is tempting, but definitely not spending that on rims and tires. But too each his own.

How much does one of the 19x11s weighs? Anyone know or care to find out. While I am at it does anyone know how much a stock wheel less tire weighs?
