I am buying the bonspeed delta rims for myy 05 gt. I was just wondering if I could do 18x10's up front or will they rub. I also wanted to know what offset would be best, I'm doing 19x10's in the rear and 18x10's up front if they will fit


thanks

You can put 275's up front (see Steeda car) but I doubt if a 10" rim would fit.

Why do you need a tire so wide in front?

the company doesn't have a 9 inch rim or anything, they go from 8 inches to 10 inches, and I don't want a 2 inch difference in the wheels, because that will hurt my handling, and what's the biggest tire I could fit on the rear wheels (19x10)

I just found out that the fr500c mustangs have 18x10's up front, but do they have any body modifications to make the tires fit, or can I do 18x10's up front

ok, I did some research and found out that a 45mm offset would be best, but I need to know what size tires, I know 295's but 295 35's, 295 40's, or what


thanks
