Wheel size question

Hey Guys, quick question:

Will 18" x 8.5" wheels with a 50mm offset fit a 2011 V6 Premium?

They are advertised as for 2009-2010 GT Mustangs, but I can't see why they wouldn't fit a 2011, right?

Thanks in advance!

Nothing in that area changed between 2010 and 2011. You should not have any issues with using those wheels.

50mm is a lot of offset for a 8.5" wheel on a Mustang.

8.5" wheel would be better in the 30-35mm offset range.

50mm will pull it in a lot.

Hmmm... Well the wheels are advertised as factory issue (Ford OEM).

Those are the factory 18" wheel dimensions for a 2006-2009 S197. Shelby GT's, Bullitts, and other GT's with 18" wheels all come with 18x8.5" wheels with 50mm offset.
