Will 18X10 rims fit the front of a 2011 v6? And if so, what is the best size to run? 255/45r18?

If not, what is the widest that will fit?

I still like a little meat on the wheels and do not want "rubber band" tires.

255 is way too small for a 10" wide rim, and I don't see you coming close to running a rim that wide on the front of your stang without some serious fitment issues...

I think you'd be happy with an 18x9 rim with anything from a 255 to a 275 wide tire.

x2, I run a 20x9 on my front with 255/35 tires and there's no rubbing and it sits perfectly flush with the fender, no tuck or sticking out.

I'm just chewing on this same question myself...

18x9's on all 4 corners with 275/35/18's... Would that work okay on a '11 GT (non-brembo)? Mine is not lowered and probably won't be.
