a guy i know has a set of ford wheels that he says came off of a mustang. Not sure what year. they are 18 x 8.5. i didn't check all four of them to see if they are all the same size but i'm not sure what mustang would have had those wheels. are they aftermarket? would they fit a foxbody? it looks like he wasn't too careful about curbs since the 2 wheels i looked at had a good bit of curb rash. i thought at first maybe they were cobra wheels but i don't think so? any ideas? the guy that owns them even went so far as to paint them with some other color. not sure what kind of paint he used, but the stuff flakes right off and you can see the true color of the wheel underneath.

I want to measure mine. It doesn't look that tall.

Aftermarket for sure. I'd check the offset to make sure they will fit on your car and not stick out or sit in too much. Offset is from the hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel.
