05GT-O.C.D. - Nice wheel choice! Looks really good, perfect size and fit on the dip dish.
What is the lip width size on the front and rear? My b.f transfered his 10.5 deepdish bullitts onto his '07 gt and it def. sticks out in the rear! I love deepdish rims on the newer mustangs cause it gives the mustang hips which is hot. Not a fan of rims that are just straight wall in the back gotta have some curves if you undertstand what i mean by that.

Hey, thanks Ms.Saleen. Here's some pics:



and... The Money Shot !










That last pic is of an adjustable panhard bar. You can use that to center the rear end under the car if one side is sticking out farther than the other.
I'm definately a fan of curves too, but I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing.

05GT-O.C.D. - thanx for the detailed photos. I guess my b.f's stick out from the wheel well cause their made for the 99-04 stangs. Heres a question, the factory 05+ mustangs don't come with wheel spacers currect?

btw... nice beer can light lol

Yeah, the offset on the 99-04 wheels is less than the 05+ which will make them stick out.

No, the 05+ don't come with wheel spacers as theyre a different offset and different tire height. If you BF swapped his 99-04 wheels onto his 07 and didn't change the tires his speedometer will be off. The 05+ tires are about 1.5" taller than the 99-04s tires.

Enfynet's right. No spacers, and at least part of the issue he's having is because the wheels are the wrong offset for the 05.

Ha ha, you like my light. It works good for under the car stuff.

Can someone explain the whole offset thing to me a bit so I have more understanding of it? What offset should i be looking for on the 05+ when looking for wheels in the future, do the offsets vary by what size rim you go with and the deepdish??
I need to get smart thank you in advance

If you're standing behind a car and were to visualize the center of the wheel, the offset is the measurement from that point to the hub that mounts to the car. Here's a pic w/ more detailed info:
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/...jsp?techid=101

The offsets I run are 20x8.5 with a +36mm offset and 20x10 with a +45mm offset.

Hope that helps.

Nope, these are anthracite w/ a polished lip.

I'm thinking of going w/ the Steeda Race hood, and Roush front w/ chin spoiler, maybe even a ducktail...

already have some 6 piston brakes on the way
