for the mustang ????

 

Not unless you have the bolt pattern modified. They're made for BMW/AUDI platforms. I had a friend who contacted vmr, they then spoke to their distributor and had them modified for $75 per wheel.

 

thanks Tony...do u know of any other manufacturer that makes wheels like VMR besides HRE..I like the RTR but i dont want as dark

 

This.

Called them up and that is what they told me as well before i got the RTR's.

 

Try TSW wheels...

Looks like they have a very close match of the RTR wheels with bigger offset. You can get 19" by 9.5" with 41 offset, which would be perfect for wider tires in the back. Wonder how much they go for and how much they weight.

 

there wheels have an offset of 35...is this better or worse than the 33 from RTR for the mustang..all this wheel talk is driving me nuts!!!!! i kind of like the TSW gunmetal w/ mirror face for a white car?? thoughts?

 

No, they have different offsets depending on what size wheels you choose. Thet have them available with 41 offset. And to answer your question, yes 35 will stick out a bit less, but not by much.

 

Check the Nurburgring model.

a wheel with a 35mm offset is going to be tucked in 2mm more than the 33mm RTR wheel
either offset will work for the front well. any offset from 30mm to 40mm+ will work for the front, the wider the wheel the bigger offset needed to not protrude beyond the fender lip.

for the back though, a 9.5inch wide wheel will need IMO at least a 40mm offset. the RTR 33mm for the rear seems to stick out just a little too much

the TSW wheel in 19x9.5 41mm offset will work IMO better on the rear than the RTRs as the rear will tuck in 8mm more
for the front it looks like they have a 19x9.5 32mm offset or go with the same as on the rear
did you notice that the wheels with the 35mm offset were 19x8.0?

 

If you're asking about the TSW wheels I got mine for about 300 a wheel and with tires they weighed in at 50.5 lbs for the fronts and 52 lbs for the rears.

 

and tires from different angles.. thanks mike

 

Chris, who did you get them from , and what size are they with what offset !

 

TSW Nurburgring Painted Gunmetal or is it all the same.or even go with the Gunmetal w/ mirror face...I was thinking 19" all the way but now i have 18" on my mind..TSW has the Front at 18"x8"(35 offset) and the Rear 18"x8.5"(40 offset)and i would use the same tire size as the Shelby Convertible (F)255/45/18 and (R)285/40/18 even though i will get a hardtop.This would work right??.FYI TSW has (f)19x8(35 offset) & (R)19x9.5(41 offset)..RTR uses (33 offset) all around....Another crazy though is the hell with all these wheels and just go for the Shelby Wheels(stock kind)and know i wont have a problem.Will Ford let me purchase the Shelby Wheels since its not one?..Not sure if i should do that since its not a Shelby.

 

I think we really need a wheel thread sticky that contains all this information and add to it over time. The RTR wheels, I'm sorry to say, do not fit well at all. The offset in the rear is completely off.

There is an amazing selection of quality aftermarket wheels for tons of other cars (subarus, bmws, Porsches, Corvettes) but Mustangs have just about the *WORST* selection of wheels. Yet they're also a huge, huge market. We should really try to get VMR and companies like this to start designing wheels with the Mustang in mind.

 

I think it's because the average mustang owner is afraid to deviate from Chrome Bullitts.

 

With the 2011 GT getting a lot of attention from non-Domestic people like me, I think (hope?) that changes. The wheel selection just sucks...I can't find a single forged or lightweight wheel for these Mustangs.

 

Does anyone make a five narrow spoke flangeless wheel in silver painted or polished? Something similar to the base GT wheel with somewhat narrower spokes?

Something similar to this (but not chrome):
