Got my first mustang

Hello i got my first mustang about 3 or 4 months ago, and honestly i dont think i will ever get another make of car. Its crazy to think i used to be into foreign. I deffanetly am interested in mods.almost addicted. Im constantly looking the top sites for mustang parts. But i have a question, Im about to buy these cobra R replica wheels for my 08 gt. My tire size is 18 by 235/50. these wheels are 18 by 9. would these wheels fit on my tire? any response is much appreciated thanks

welcome & congrats!

The tire will fit, but are pretty narrow for that rim size. Typically on an 18x9 you'd want to go with a 255/45 or a 265/45.

Yeah Mustangs have a way of doing that. Got my first Mustang when I was 16 was a 72 Mach 1 still got it. It's a huge garage queen takes up the whole thing. Picked up at 2013 GT last November my wife like it so much it converted her over to Mustangs and she had to go get one was pretty funny.
