Default 2005 Roush Wheel/Tire Options

What size wheels and tires would I have for options on an 05 Roush? First Mustang and dont have a clue about them yet. Dont know what offsets would be required for size applications either. Can someone help a newby? Sorry but I am a rodder trying for a little more comfort as I age.

Not sure of your question.

Are you looking to build a Roush-clone? or looking to buy a Roush and are offered different tire/wheel packages? Beyond this, the dimensions of the wheels are going to dictate the size of tire that will fit, but the car will dictate the diameter.

Give us some more info, please.

Thanks for responding Jazzer. My background is in street/traditional rods. I am getting kinda old for the beating they dish out and bought a 2005 Roush Convertible for my daily. I am grossly unfamiliar with Mustangs and dont like the wheels/tires that came on it. They are Ford Racing wheels but not the original Roush ones. I need help on offsets and backspacing that will work as well as wheel widths. I hear 9's front and 10's rear mentioned often but is that workable? The wheels that are on it are spaced to the outside too much and stick out beyond the wheel wells (dont like that). I am obviously old school and like the Torq Thrust style personally but will 18's in 9 and 10 wide work on these wells and what offset and backspacing do I need? Thats really the summary of where I am with the car. Just picked it up need to get the wheels/tires changed out first!
