If you really really really gotta have the wheels, then buy'em. If you don't, go find something else and drop the worry.

That's all there is to it. People on here are either gonna be cool with it, or not. In the end, the only one you should be worried about pleasing is yourself. Yer the one who has to drive the car, not them. It's your ride, to what you want to it.

A 9" is gonna stick outward almost 1.5" over OE. 24mm offset vs. 45mm on OE 17x8, plus 1/2" going to 9" wide over 8" OE. I'm not one for sending tires outward 1.5", offset should have been 50 like the Ford 18x8.5 rim. They guys build a 9" rim and iinstead of going 50-55mm they drop down to 24mm. ???? I think it's because these are 04Mustang and earlier engineering.... although many, many companies say 05-07 mustang. They don't care if your tires sit outward. And you know enough debris kicks up especially in the rear with OE offset.

FYI, do whatever you want of course.

I have these wheels and they fit just fine. I read somewhere that the new Razors will not have the Shelby on them. Shelby is selling his own version now and the agreement he had with American Racing Wheels is over.
