The good thing is that you really don't have to really worry about offset. If its any of the wheels American muscle or other mustang specialty sites offer, they will fit no problem.

Finding wheels is probably one of the hardest decisions to make for our cars, and exhaust too. Let us know if we can help you out, we do a lot of custom orders of wheels for all sorts of brands. We carry quite a bit of brands to include: TSW, True Forged, Vossen, Niche, RTR, Avant Garde, Huntington, Enkei, Weld wheels and many, many more. Call us if you ever have any questions.

I'm in the market for some new wheels. They will be used for track days. Color is not important. I had ordered Forgestar CF5's and after 6 weeks I checked on my order and they say they won't have the parts to make my rims for a long time. Great customer service there.

I'm looking for 1" - 1 1/2" of stagger 9 or 9 1/2 x 18's for the front and 10 - 11 x 18's for the rear. I'm also looking to spend less than 2 grand. Any help or suggestions.
If I don't find anything I will get the enkei pf01's. But I'm not crazy about their look.

American Muscle makes their wheels specifically for Mustangs. The spacings are perfect. Order from them without hesitation.

I've been looking on there site. A lot of their rims don't list weights and the ones that do are heavy. Thanks though. I do like some of their styles.

Based on your criteria, (staggered, light, 18's).... Check out TSW interlagos. Very light weight, decent looking and not expensive.

Not sure why you insist on a staggered set up for the track. Seems counter intuitive.

Because I have a Boss and if I go square I'll have to change the suspension. It is very balanced with a 1-1 1/2" of stagger
