The only rims I seem to like on the new body styles are the Bullitts. Is anyone making Deep dish with the correct backspacing yet? I would like a 18x9 front and a 18x10 in the rear so I could install 285/35s. I do not want the wheels sticking out of the sides. Has anyone heard anything yet. I would like them in the Anthricite so they look factory. I think this is the best color for Windveil blue.

Its somewhat hard to make real deep dish bullitts for the '05 body style without sticking out of the fender because the mounting surface for the wheels is much closer to the fender than in the 99-04 stangs. There are some companies that make them for the 05, but i havent seen any with a really deep dish.

One of my big complaints about the new Mustang is that you cant have some nice deep dish rims without them sticking out of the fender.
hopefully for the small redesign they make it possible

Partshopper ( http://www.partshopper.com/ ) have a Black 17x10.5 Deep Dish Bullit Replica, but it's not quite what you're looking for, either in size or color. This is however the only deep dish I found so far:

The problem with those wheels is that the offset is not correct for the 2005. They will stick out. If you absolutley had to have deep dish wheels, on the back you may be able to swap the axle out for a shorter one, and on the front, go with a regular dish, however Im not sure if it would be possible to swap the axle out, and im pretty sure that it is a bad idea.

The other option would be to go with fender flares in 3d carbons body kit, they make the wheel wells bigger I think.

Certainly that with 3dCarbon still stay well.



To the equal one: the only one "but" that has 05 is it..... and to add that in the back micas ( back lights ) a few black mate lines ( of Paint ) in all the frame.Example

Before

After
