Does anyone know of someone making/selling FR500 wheels for classics Stangs? All I find are for the 05, ie. 9" or more wide and wrong backspacing. I'd need 17-18" diameter, 8 and 9 to 9.5" width and 4.5" / 5.75" BS. Don't want to use spacers.

I see the Bullitt wheels with the right offset but not the FR wheel.

Hehe, the link was just to show what design I'm after. But on this site, and all others I've found, they only have FR500's for the 05 it seems...

No that link shows them for 94-04 , and yes even with this off set spacers will be needed. The 05 up cars have even more + offset. I am putting 18x10 Bullitts on my 69 and so far very little if any spacing will be needed.

Custom offsets sound like custom $$$$. Kevin also had to use spacers on his Coupe.

I think he is running spacers. I cant remember. I do know he cut down (narrowed) his wheels though.

Yeah, the 8in are what I'm having a hard time finding. He's running modern Mustang FR500's:

Wheels & Tires
Wheels: Ford FR500 18x8 (5.42-inch backspace w/ .25-inch spacer), front; 18x9 (5.94-inch backspace), rear
Tires: 245/40-18 BFGoodrich G-Force KD, front; 275/40-18, rear
