Unfortunately, I didn't purchase 18X10 wheels for the rear (currently have 18X9). The front wheels stick out more up to the fender than the rear wheels. Would getting an 18X10 stick them out more towards the fender more on the rears? Or would they be in the same spot as the 18X9?

I'm debating whether or not to get a wheel spacer right now for my 18X9 and wanting to put it on my 18X10 as well (when I buy new Saleen 18X10 wheels).

18x10s replica saleens will go right to the fender.



Although some people actually do space even the 18x10s with a 3/8 spacer. Crazyness

Thanks for the picture, that answers my question I think I may be one of those people too who might be spacing out an 18X10 for a wide, beefy look.

You won't need a spacer with an 18X10 if the offet is correct.

I'm about to buy some 18x10 silver rears. I'm in the same boat - 9s all round. Let me know where you decide to buy them from. I was thinking stangsuspension.com. What tires you going with? - I'm going 295/35/18 KDW2s.

I was planning on purchasing wheels from mrt-direct.com. I'll be going with 305/35/18 drag radials on the rear.

Here is my 18x10 saleens with 315 tires and 1/4" spacer.
They now align nicely with the fender.
