Default BBS RS GT wheels. will they fit on a 2002 gt.

I know many people have put bbs wheels on mustangs so i had a question. im looking at a set of bbs rs gt wheels that my buddy is getting rid of off his bmw.The front offset is +35mm and rears are at 25mm. it has 245 toyos in the front and 275s in the rear. i was just curious if these wheels would work or require a spacer or anything on a 2002 mustang gt. thanks to those who provide any information.

I am guessing the width of wheels is 9"s & 10's....?

If so, the fronts are about 3/8" deeper than I like to see and would VERY likely need a spacer to avoid rubbing on sway bar or inside of fender. The rears would be fine and no rubbing at all. IMO, I would not run a spacer up front of that thickness. You would need to replace your lug-bolts as the existing ones are too short.

Again... the above assumes that you are looking at 9"x17"/18" wheels with 35~40 series tires (f). And 10"x17"/18" wheels with 35~40 series tires (r). The bolt pattern needs to be 5x4.5 or 114.3mm so confirm this as well.

Just keep the wheels you have on the car in the sig. Your car looks sooooo clean like it sits!!! Post up some more pics of it if you could cus that just looks killer.
