not to jack this thread, but do you know of a place to get 18" bullets in staggered sizes? regular lip in front and deep dish in rear? American Muscle makes them in deep dish only, which is what we have now, but are changing very soon...prefer 18x9 front and 18x10 or 10.5 rear...thanks

ok, after trying to get on their website for days, and i am sure everyone has tried, oe wheels direct sent me to another website, rev-wheel.com. they show all the wheels they make to fit all mustangs, as well as other cars. and according to them, they make the FR-500 and Bullet wheels staggered to fit our cars. someone might want to verify all the info first, but it's a start...

I just bought black fr500's from www.50resto.com. They have 18x10 DD and 18x9 non DD with the correct offsets for our cars. They are on page 3 towards the top of 18" wheels. The guy I ordered them from said they are out of stock right now, but should have them in by next week.

Sorry for not replying. The 18X10's DD were $150 each and the 18x9's were $145 each. I am still waiting on them, because they have not received them yet. If anybody knows of another place to buy FR500 wheels (staggered) that fit our cars, please let me know.

see my post above, according to them, they sell staggered FR500's and Bullets to fit our cars. you will need to call OE Wheels Direct for ordering, as their website is not up and running...let us know what you find...

Can someone tell me what the proper offset is for our rides? I want 18x9's in the front and 18x10's out back like the above member.

I go out and see several different offsets am just not sure which is correct. I don't want to see any of the tire outside the fenders.

Thanks,

Apex
