Default 18x9 Deep Dish Bullitt Wheels

I'm thinking about getting 18x9 Deep Dish Bullitt Wheels on my 2006 and i was wondering if anyone was running these. If so what size tries do u have and are there any clearance issues. Please post pics if avaliable. Thx

Do you need spacers for the front tires because i found the 18x9's on mustangtuning.com and it says for the deep dish it requires a 1/4 spacer for the front tires only.

Stanman do you know what the offset and backspacing is on your rims?

I don't. They were advertised as "05 backspacing", but you have to watch it, unless they are advertised as "05 only", you could be in for trouble, as some people try to say anything from mid 90's-2006 is all the same, which it really isn't. For some reason 45mm seems to ring a bell.

Yea the ones i found on mustangtuning specificly say 2005+ only but its a 36mm offset and it says you need spacers for the front tires. Im just a little concerned about putting spacers on the front. Do you know if this will cause a problem?

Bought the Mustangtuning 18x9 front, 18x10 rear chrome deep dish bullits. They came with spacers in the front. Also purchased the bullit lug nuts. I went back a couple of weeks later and front lugs were a little loose, the backs were tight. Probably due to the front spacers. Im due for a lug check tommorrow and will advise. Otherwise, they look great, no clearance problem (lowered with Steeda Sport springs 1"), Great quality. Think I heard they redesigned the fronts so spacers are not needed....or was that a dream....Ill have to check. Have a great day guys and gals and remember you cannt drive safley if you are dead

Thats wat i was a little nervous about... I dont even know if its worth it to go with the deep dish over the regular bullitt rims if it means taking the risk with those spacers. Let me kno how you make out. thx alot for the info

I was looking to go with these, so I could still use the stock tires. Any follow up per the front spacers and keeping those lugs tight?

Or skip the spacers and just go with:
