Yep they are 18's. I'm on the Pro-Kit so 1.5 inch drop. I'm adding the chin you have next week. Good luck!

BEFORE FLIPPING THAT COIN, take into consideration your overall goal for the look of your car in the future...think about where you plan on heading with the car as you progress and buy more parts for it later....wheels have a huge impact on the look and change the car as a whole...research all of your choices, photoshop pics if you cant decide between a few select styles, then make your decision based on your plans :-)

I personally like the black wheels on a white mustang it gives a great contrast. This is especially true if you have dark tinted windows and black stripes. The black chrome wheels just don't do it for me, but it is not my car. I am sure which ever you pick it will be nice. Good Luck!

Do not buy the 18" Saleen wheels, they look boring especially as they look so smal.
It would be much better to get a set of 20" FR500 black chrome wheels or the same ones as the Roush car above.
The 2004 Saleen wheels just don't look good, i've had countless customers and seen many forum members throw 18" Saleen wheels and been simply dissatisfied because they're so uninteresting as a set of wheels. They looked good on the 2004 mustangs because they filled up the wheel well and were bold, they have the opposite characteristics on the 2005 car.
