I have a 98 mustang with original 15 in wheels and tires. I would like to buy a set of 17x8.5 bullit rims / with pirelli tires. Will they fit or will i have to modify my car.

 

A 17 x 8.5 should work fine without modification (as long as the tires aren't too big)

 

Thanks Colin for the quick reply,

i believe the tires are Pirelli 235/55/17s I believe (or 45s) , are these too big?

 

Would these happen to be stock 05-07 wheels? If so, the offset is wrong and you may have rubbing issues on your suspension

 

uh oh, yes i believe they are stock wheels. are the tires the issue or the wheels?

 

both actually... your car calls for a 25.6" tire... stock

the 05-07 tires are much larger than a stock 94-04 tire
also the wheels will sit further in the wheel well than they do now, and since the tire is bigger, they will rub inside the wheel well


along with looking completely retarded
