Default Roush 18x10 wheels

I've recently come across a set of 4 18x10 Roush wheels. I'm assuming that these will work on my mostly stock car but I guess I would like some more confirmation that they will be problem free. I'm a little concerned about the wheels being 10" wide in the front as I think they would be rather close to the shocks, and very tight when turning. If I were to replace my stock 18" wheel with these new ones, would I have to adjust any stops or anything like that or will these work as is?

I just put a set on my GT and had the same concerns until I checked out a New Roush 428. They are within 3/8 inchs from the shock but that's the way they are. They will work fine and you shouldn't have to do anything else.

OK, Thanks. I just didn't wanna end up wasting money on tires and not have the wheels fit anyways. Hopefully I'll get everything I need and get em installed in a week or so.

BTW, just found this article that says the 427R has 18x9s.

I would go to the roush performance website and double check that bit of information. I think all of the roush cars except the roush sport have 18" x 10" wheels.

For the record, the 18x10 Roush wheel seem to fit perfectly on my car and look sexy as hell. Also loving the new Nitto NT555s I put on em. Handle way better than stock tires.

I actually heard about a set for sale on a Honda forum, thanks to one of my Asian friends, and got a really good deal. I always wanted a set of these wheels so when I saw the deal, I decided now was the time.

Yeah I did go with the 275/40/18 tires all around to finish them off.
