Got New Wheels! 18x10 FR500's all around :)
Unfortunately they are not mounted yet.
But will be next week hopefully......
They fit like a glove too, no fitment issues at all!
I have about half an inch of space between the wheel and the strut too, so there's plenty of room there.
I'm going to be running 275/40's all around this go around. maybe 285's next go round.
The wheels are +40 offset btw.
Got the wheels for 530 shipped and tires for 495 shipped!
Wheels ordered through CC and received within 4 days
Tires ordered through Tirerack and received in 2 days
Mount and balance including transferring of the TPMS Sensors from the old wheels to the new ones is going to cost $18 per wheel. (scratch free guarantee)
I hope that answers most questions ya'll have, but if there are any more then ask away!
Here are the pics I have so far!

well sorry but way that pic looks of the front straight shot..they are already sticking past the fenders and then you put on tires and they will look like those goofy cars like its on roller skates. you might fit with this crowd

Agreed, but ill wait and see how it looks with the tires before I say anything. Might just be the angle or something.

cant wait to see them, that's a lot of offset for the front, generally they go 30 in front, maybe that wheel is different or the width will mae a differen. FWIW, you need to figure out if its going to stick out and if you can live with it if it does. no one takes wheels back once tires have been mounted. i think the 40 is going to protrude well past the front fender, they will be perfect in back. If it were me, I'd try and get a lesser offset, thats a common mustang wheel and i don't think you will be happy with the 40mm front, if you know what you are getting into and like the look, just ignore me
