hey guys i just got a 2013 5.0 and i wanna get new rims i found these

http://www.americanmuscle.com/charco...18x9-0512.html

and i was wondering if the stock tires from the 18x8 rims will fit on these new rims thanks alot guys!

The stock tires are too small for a 18x9 rim, unfortunately. You'll need to go with a larger size, anywhere from 255-275 will work perfectly.

Not sure if you already saw, but we do have wheel/tire packages with these AMR rims. The wheels are mounted/balanced free, before shipped to your door. Once they arrive, you'll be able to just jack the car up and install them right away!

Let me know if you have any questions about any of our AM parts!

Ok thanks ill probably end up goin with the 18x8 wheels than because my tires are brand new, do I have to do anything about the sensors?

TheDivaDanielle

you'd have to transfer your sensors over.

AMWill

Luckily the 11+ TPMS sensors are the valve stem type and not the bands. Which means, you can easily transfer them over to your new wheels when the tires are taken off. No need to purchase anything else!

I have 18x9's on my GT and the stock p-zero's fit just fine. Go with the 18x9's.

no stretching at all? it looks good?

They are not stretched at all, If I recall correctly the rims that were stock on my car were 18x8.5. I got the chrome 2010 gt500 style rims from AM, took them to my local shop and I was prepared to buy some 255/45's but we tried the 235/50's (stockers) on the rim's and they fit good. I can take a pic tomorrow for you if you'd like, but the guys at my tire shop say they look fine as well.

edit, here's a pic that you can kinda see how the tire fits. I've put about 30000 km's on them like this, so they're pretty worn down now.

Okay great thanks for the help!

The tires will likely be stretched, but they will fit! Just depends on the look you want. If you want more of a beefy, muscle car look, I'd suggest going wider. Here's that 235/50/18 tire on an 18x7.5" rim, so the tire will be stretched 3/4" of an inch on either side of the wheel.



I know they're not the best pictures, but it was the closest thing I could find
