Planning on an Eibach spring kit to drop the Dark Knight II down a bit....

And found these 18 inch anthracite deep-dish Bullitts for sale and thinking seriously about grabbing them (even though I wasn't planning on upgrading the wheels till next year!) - anyone have any feedback??....

I don't like to pass up a good deal! B)

The offset on the 05 wheels should be .45mm. I don't know if those would stick out to far or not. Might want to check into that.

I say if the offset will be ok, grab them. I think they'd look sweet!

I was told the previous model year Mustang rims won`t fit on the 05. Mustangtuning.com will have their 18 deep dish bullitts for the 05 next month. No word on price yrt. That is what I`m getting for mine

I have an email in to the site to doublecheck.
(these pop up under accessories for the '05 so I would figure they were associated with the car correctly... least I hope so!)

If they are the '04 model they *will* stick out, too much for me personally. I saw some in person and it was quite obvious the offset was wrong.

yes, they will stick out. I dont see how someone can make a true deepdish look when you have a car that requires a +45m offset.
I like 2005REDGT's rims. That type of design will be the only way to give an illsion of deepdish rims.
