I want to get a pair of 18s by 10 on my 04 mustang gt. I have the stock 17 bullitts all around so I just want to get rears. I was looking at American muscle, the problem is that the wheel they have does not match the stock bullitt color.

Anyone knows where I can get this?

I want to have 18/10 or 18/9 back and regular bullitt 17s front. That way I can switch to stock rear during the winter.

I forgot to add that I also want to lower my car an Inch back and 1.5 front would this be any problem with If I get 18s back?

it will look retarded IMO. i have the stockers up front with deep dish 17's out back and i cant stand it. 18's could only look worse

+1 The color is pretty close but if youre like me it will drive you crazy. Im gonna try to paint the stock fronts to match.

I was told by a friend that its possible to fit a wider tire to the stock rim. He said 275 or 285 wide tires are possible. do you guys know if the stock bullitt rims are 17by9 or 17by8? and if this tire size fits the stock wheel size? I will be ok if I could fit a 275 in my stock rim even though I want the deep rim look on the back.

Stock Bullits for an SN95 are going to be 17"x8"

I don't recommend you run a 275+ tire on an 8" wheel, as this is a poor fit, IMO. ALL manufacturers I have seen require at least a 9" wheel to run that size (some high-profile tires may be excepted)

I also don't recommend you run a 17" wheel up front and an 18" wheel out back due to ABS sensor issues that can arrise. Running too much differential on tires will cause your ABS indicator light to flash on dashboard. I have yet to find any major issues that arrise, but I think modulation begins too soon in this case (not sure). This will NOT occur, however, if tires are same diameter. This is pretty difficult to do running wider in back than in front.

You can lower your ride and run 18"s, but should stick with no more than a 35 series tire on either end. You "may" get away with higher, but would need to know specifics on wheel off-set.

thanks for the help I though stock ones were 17/9. I think I am just going to wait and get 18s all around with 10.5s on the back 9 front. I wanted to get wheels first, I might as well lower the car first.
