Bullitt Wheel Clarification

I have some questions before ordering rims for my '06. I was originally planning on getting the Shelby Razor 5's but after finding many places having a back order and not the color/size I want, I decided to forget them.

I am now going to go with 18" Bullitts from Mustang Tuning. My question is this.. I am getting deep dish in the rear, which is their 18x10 rim with 45mm offset. I don't want a deep dish on the front rims, I dont mind a small lip like 1" or so but not as deep as the rear. So my question is this, if I get their 18x9 'deep dish' rims for the front, how deep is the lip? They have a 18x9 in non-deep dish but it says it has a 24mm offset and is for previous gen. mustangs. But would that fit right with like a 255 tire? Or does someone else sell a 18" bullitt in non deep dish for the 05+?

http://www.americanmuscle.com/verde-...heel-18x9.html here are the 18x9 DD +36mm offset

http://www.americanmuscle.com/de1.html 18x9 +24mm offset

Thanks for the help as I have no idea and want to get correct fitment.

The 18x9 with 24mm offset will work just fine on the front. With 255/45 tires the tires will be flush with the fenders and match you rears. The rears with 45mm offset and 10 width will be flush with the fenders with 285 or 295 tires. I have the Razors with 24mm offset with 255/45 all around and they look great.
