Wheel Selection (need some help)
Needs some help with dimensions and fitment.
I want to get these wheels: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...VE-Drift-19X95
19x9.5 with 35mm offset
Will they fit without any additional hardware?
What can I expect as the look? Will the wheels still remain tucked in? Will they stick out? How far?
These were the tires I was thinking of going with:
275/35ZR19 XL Kumho Ecsta SPT
Thoughts? I want to remain with the rim size because of the style and price point. Same with the tire.

Those wheels from Late Model Resto are Mustang specific and should be a perfect fit (and look awesome). If you have the Brembo Brake pkg I would call them to make sure the will fit. I think these were originally based off the RTR wheels, but have a slightly different design and more importantly are less expensive. I would rather had those but I didn't see them until after I bought what I have now.
The wheels should fit fine, they will not be tucked, they will be pretty much flush with the fender wells. A buddy of mine has the RTR's on his and they are perfect in my opinion. Pretty much even with the fenders.
Both are good looking wheels, but i still like the RTR's better. I am thinking that is what Santa needs to bring me. But, like exhaust, suspension, etc., it is all a matter of opinion.
Good luck and be sure to post pics when you get them.

Acutally I have one more question. Right now I have stock wheels and rims (18"). If i go with these 19" rims + the tire, and if that change the overall diameter, will I need to do something extra?
A computer tune, etc?

If your original tire size is 235/50ZR18, the overall diameter is 27.2". If you buy the 275/35ZR19 you will reduce your diameter to 26.6" so the speedo will be slightly off and show a faster reading than actual speed. Not by much though, we're talking probably only a couple MPH difference at high speeds.

I've got the 19" brushed nickle rims and I like the way they look o my black GT premium. There are Perrelli's P-Zeros on it now but I want the widest tire possible for the stock rims. I've seen answers that are all over the place. Can anyone tell me what the widest tires I can put on those rims are - without messing up the speed-o?
Guys, here is a good site for tire size evaluation. You can plug in your current size and various other sizes for comparison.
