Will a set of rims with -10 offset fit my mustang?

 

I'd love to help but I am soooooo the wrong person to ask

 

I'm about as confused as you are on offset.

 

Well now the guy says they are +10 offset. So will either of these work?

 

Not sure what a +10 or -10 means. Offsets are usually expressed in inches from the center of the wheel.

 

That is in mm.

 

10mm is less than 0.5 inches - not much offset either way...

 

Offset is only one measurement. What is the diameter and width? And do you know the bolt spacing?

 

Ok I think these are what you want. They are 14x6 with a 4x114.3 bolt pattern.



This 1 guy some weld draglites on Huntsville Racing, just depends on how much he wants them I might get them instead.

 

Mustang Wheel Offset

The offset of a mustang wheel is the distance from the hub mounting surface to the centerline of the mustang wheel. It is very important to purchase a wheel with the correct offset for your year Mustang. If the offset is not right for your mustang, the steering and handling will be affected.

There are three types of offset:

1. Zero Mustang Offset: This means that the hub mounting surface is even with the centerline of the wheel.
2. Positive Mustang Offset: The hub mounting surface is toward the front (face or wheel side) of the wheel. Positive offset wheels are generally found on front wheel drive cars, as well as on newer rear-wheel drive cars.
3. Negative Mustang Offset: This means that the hub mounting surface is toward the back (or brake side) of the wheel’s centerline.



Mustang Wheel Backspacing:

Backspacing is distance from the back edge of a wheel rim to the back of the center section. Measured in inches, backspacing is closely related to offset. This measurement is important because it determines the clearance of the wheel in the well, and the amount the wheel will stick out.



You can measure a wheel’s backspacing by running a straight edge across the rim bead and dropping another straight edge down to the wheel face, measuring that distance.

Mustang Wheel Bolt Pattern:
The bolt pattern is the diameter of the circle made by the centers of the wheel lugs. So, for our 5-lug wheels, a bolt pattern of 5 x 4.5 inches means that the lug pattern falls on a circle that is 4.5 inches in diameter.
Note: 5x4.5 inches is 5x114.3 mm

 

Well I am hopefully going to get these Draglites. Just waiting on parents decision and more info about them.

 

who's are they, i can get info pretty quick from them guys

 

I am on huntsville racing. I switched my name to Gnatsum. Which is Mustang backwards. The guys username is Horsplay.

 

ok, if you dont get an answer i'll try to find stuff out...i'll give you 1 guess my name on there

 

Well those are out of the question now. The front rims were WAY to skinny for my car. They were 15x3 1/2. I have 14x4....

 

yeah i just saw that.

 

I want some 14x6 or 15x6 rims. If not my mods will go even higher.

 

Well I am now looking at conversion adapters. Might convert from 4x4.5 to the fox body 4x4.25 bolt pattern.

 

Well hopefully soon my mustang is going to look like this. We are in the process of deciding whether or not to get wheel adapters. If we do get them those will be the rims selected for the mustang. I would really like a set in black though.

 

I have 1 last question. Will these 16" rims fit on my mustang even with the 1" drop?
