Default 2010 Mustang Wheels Same as 05-09?

Ok I have been on a wheel hunt for a while and can never make up my mind. But I just saw the new 2010 Shelby GT500 and I really like the wheels. They are 19" wheels with an anthracite color.

I am curious if the bolt pattern and offset is the same as the 05-09's. I would assume yes since it is really just a facelift model change but want to make sure.

Hopefully I can get these as take offs next year for a decent price.

Thanks,

Since the 2010 is nearly identical to the 2005-2009, I'd say YES, the rims will be the same.

Those are pretty!

IMO, up close they look hot but at a distance they almost remind me of my old stock fan blades which I didn't really care for. But what counts is that YOU like them. Sweet!

They remind me of steeda pentars.

I also really like that they are 19" wheels. I think 18's look a little small and 20's are a little big.

Also since the new GT-500 and GT have 19" wheels I have to think that the amount of tires available in those sizes will improve.

I am going to keep my eye out for them on takeoff parts sites. I have found current GT500 wheels and tires for $999. Fingers crossed these will be the same.

The bolt pattern has been the same since 65 (except for the 4 lugs on the fox cars), it'd be dumb to change it in the middle of the same platform IMO.

Those wheels are nice, I agree...

those are nice wheels. but some of the other new wheels look a lot better.
i agree with nuke, from a distance they look like the 18' fanblades that came stock on the 05-09's.
but i do love the color of the wheels. the color i want my wheels to be on my car.

05-09 offsets are the same as the 2010 offsets.

Even though I'm not a big fan of mercedez, they look like the amg wheels which i really like.
