They don't make 10" wide FR500's for the '05 yet.
Right now the only ones they offer for the '05 are these black 18x9's.

D meant the 9s are in stock, there are no 10s as of yet. And yes, we have several pallet fulls of all colors in Bullitt, the FR500 we only have the black.

These wheels will fit your car.. Just expect them to stick out even with the fenderwell..

I dont know why guys keep saying they dont make them.. Who wants 18'9s.. You want deep dish dont you? I dont blame you.. The White GT could have done better with the back wheels.. Not flaming Mr. Raburn, but why are people not allowing guys to make up their own minds..?

http://www.mustangtuning.com/deepdish3.html

These are 23mm offset.. They will look sweet on an 05..

Also refer to this thread as proof!!

This 05 has 22mm in the back.. Looks sweet to me!!

My advice to the guy with the white GT is, Dont do this to yourself.. Please, correct your mistake now.. You have a beautiful car, which is running 4 front wheels.. Please my friend, order the deep dish.. If need be, I'll buy your 2 back wheels, at a discounted price of course.. But as you can see in the pictures, you failed to do enough research..

Also, lets clear up another myth.. The only time 45mm is important is on a 17in wheel.. 18 inches and up, look at the mm to determine how much you want the wheels to stick out closest to the fenderwell..

Mr. MRaburn

Sorry about that Mr. Raburn.. I understand I may have just ruined a good sell. That was not my intention.. Just trying to help the member.. Hope Duner does not get mad at me.. LOL!! But you guys gotta admit, the white GT does not look right with 4 front wheels...? Lets just be honest.. Money isnt everything.. We gotta take care of each other right?

MSP..Do you need LASIK corrective surgery?

The pictures that you are referring to show a car that looks like crap. The wheels stick out about 2 inches from the fenderwell? Please explain what you are talking about, my thinking is that you
1)are buddy/buddy with the owner of the car
2)you work for the company that sells those 10" wide wheels that AREN'T made for the 2005, and you are trying to increase sales for your company.
3)you need major corrective surgery and the physicans won't treat you becuase of the thickness of you coke bottles.
Which is it?

Probably number 3 best describes me.. LOL!! Duner knows me.. I was not bashing the white GT man.. It looks nice..

But your bashing the other cars is utterly ridiculous..!! I dont even know those guys at all. Duner can verify.. Just giving my opinion.. But you can put me on number 3 of your list..LOL!!

Also, can you help me find a physician?

MSP,
I started out writing a pretty nasty post, but after re-reading yours, it's better to let your ingorance speak for itself.

Do a little research (and ask a buddy for help) and you'll know what I mean.

Whatever man.. Write the nasty post.. Those cars look good.. I dont know why you guys have a tough time with it..

Write whatever you want.. My opinion is, I dont like the way your wheels look.. Thats my opinion, why take offense with it?

I thought I was helping you StangNut!! How foolish of me..

I even offered to buy 2 of the wheels.. LOL!! Damn!!

Whats wrong with the pics guys? You dont like all of them?

This hostlility might have something to do with me stepping on Partshopper, which I already stated was not my intention..

I just think StangNuts car would look better with the 18x10's.. Didnt mean to offend you StangNut..

Look, you're the one who started bashing my car and my choices. I HATE deep dish wheels so for the muscle car look I was going for, they were the right choice.

And before anyone gets confused, your statement about offsets is incorrect.

Ok well, I was just looking at the Mustang05 racecar, and the wheels are the same as yours exactly, so your just holding the line... The deepdish is more of a personal choice.. I already said your car looks good.. But I can understand how it is painfull to hear a differing opinion.. Sorry man.. I wont apologize again, so accept this one for the last time.. Your car is sweet!! Dont trip!!


Well, not exactly like the racecar but close..

I have no problem with differing opinions. I'm glad the wheels aren't everyone's favorites. I'd hate to have the same wheels everyone has. You just need to learn how to use a little tact when stating your opinions.
