Default Stock Rims

Ok I love my stock rims for looks. But I want to change the size. I would like to keep the fronts as is. But would like change to 18 x 10.5 in rear. So my question is. Does anybody know where to find identical to stock rim in different sizes? See my sig for pic of rims.

Well there are lots of companies that sell rims, mustangtuning is one, but I never dealt with them. How close they are to stock is another question. Quality is a another. Factory 18"s are forged if I read correctly.

So you want to run 18's out back and 17's up front??

I've heard really good things about mustangtuning.com. Everyone I've seen on posts or friends I've talked to have had good experiences. Personally, I had a great experience ordering through them, but I didn't order rims. My mods came very quickly and I will definatelt order through them again. In fact, I'm planning on ordering my rims through them.

I have the Verde Replica Bullitts with 18x10 45mm offset ~$165 each and weigh about 26lbs.

The wheels have 285/40/18 Michelin Pilots. The tires are actually a bit skinny for the 10 inch rim so unless you have 450+ HP at the rear wheels you don't need more than a 10 inch rear unless you just like saying your is bigger than others

My advice is to go with 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear. I don't think 17 in the front would look right if you change the rear only.
