Default Z06 wheels...will they work?

I have a 2003 GT and I want some 18x9.5" and 18x10.5" I can't find some cheap wheels that have been used on a mustang. I would like to spend no more than about $300 a wheel. I like the corvette wheels, does anyone know if the wheel backspacing and fitment will work? These are the two I have in mind. I know theres the Bullit wheels but those are 17" I want 18" Any suggestions thanks.

You can get the bullit weels in 18x9 and 18x10, here are a couple of links that have them in the 18" size:

I could be wrong here, I've been told I was once, but Vettes/Camaros have always been 5x4.75" where Stangs were 5x4.5"...

No dont ruin the Great American Pony car with a set of s***y GM wheels. Get The torque thrust rims (like on the 02-04 GTs). They do make those in 18s and Black, chrome, polished whatever you want. How much you lookin to spend on them.

I would like to spend around $300 per wheel. But I want an 18" and I want them as wide as possible. I dont understand why they have 17x10.5 and 17x9.5" then when you move up to 18 its only 18x10"and 18x9. I guess they have clearence issues. But I have seen cars in magazines and online that have 18x9.5 and 18x10.5. I love the lip on the torque thrusts but I dont know how the chrome ones would look on a sonic blue GT. I dont know. I just want some nice wheels that are 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 and not have to pay a fortune for them. I love the BBS RS-GT's but at $900 a peice its alot....
