here are some shots finally of the wheels not really good pictures. Wheels are 18x9's all around Sn-95 spindles, fox length axles, tires are 255/35/18's and 275/35/18's the front tires are sorta narrow.

Looks terrible, take them off and sell them to me for half of what you got in them Just kididng. Looks awesome man. I love 18's on fox stangs. Looks narrow? Can't get much better then a 275 on there bud. i'm running 245's on my 18's but upgrading to 265's on all 4 corners.

About your rear axles. Don't your rear rims have the "sucked in" look? Are you gonna space it out a bit? Cause i think your front rims stick out further then your rear...

the rims arent 10 so yeah the are gonna need a spacer in the rear, the car also needs an alignment since the 5-lug so the fronts are toe in. the narrow tires are the fronts

Those are all 18x9's???

How come the rear wheels have much more of a "dish" to them??

Wow you haven't got an alignment yet? Damn, when took my car off the hoist after the 5 lug converion the front of my car was so toe'd in that my wheels squeeled when i backed off the hoist ha. But i could of moved them but my dad was mad at me for having the car on the hoist for like a week lol. oh well. You gonna run a half inch spacer then or what?

because the rear tire is wider... giving the ILLUSION of more dish... as the front tire doesnt even match up width wise to the rim.

Paint the spokes white.

As far as the dish, I think American Muscle sells 9" wide bulitts in deep dish, though im not shure of the B.S. or how it works.

Your correct American Muscle now sells a 9 inch rim with the lip of a 10 inch wheel, I did not want to screw around with getting a 10 inch rim on the rear but I love the look. The offset is 24mm on all 4 corners, the front rims are from Wheel Replicas since American muscle discontinued the non-lip version. hence the different centercaps. As for painting the spokes white.. not a chance

Looks good, will look much better with a spacer. Also yeah my 255/35s do run narrow on the 9" wheel. Just don't curb it!
