Will this wheel offset and backspacing work on our cars?

[flgants]

2- 18" x 7" with a 4” Backspacing
2- 18” x 8” with a 5” Backspacing
Bolt Pattern: 5-114.3
Offset: The 7” wide wheels have a 0mm offset and the 8” wide have a 13mm offset

Will this work on an sn95? Please let me know

0mm offset... if that's right then no way. The front caliper overhangs the wheel mounting surface on the rotor by a good 1/4" if not more. Double check that there is 0 offset... that just doesn't sound right.

Gary, when I just ordered my wheels, I took the easy way out and looked to AFS's site, they list their offsets and backspacing there. If you got those wheels even with the correct offset, the back spacing would give you the stock "rear wheels tucked under the fender" look.

:OT:
My skinnies are on the UPS truck scheduled for delivery today!!! I'm still waiting on my road wheels to ship...

Paul- How is the buyers remorse on the Bogarts? I am not saying they wont be awesome, but if you are like me at all, you would be justifying and re-justifying in your head constantly. I know I did when I spent $1300 (gasp) on my Torq Thrust II's. Just do me a favor. When you get tired of the Bogarts, call me.lol

Gary, I looked for wheels for so long that I brainwashed myself into thinking that the amount of money I spent on them wasn't much and that I DESERVED it... that being said, yes it still makes me sick to think of how much they were... but I'm trying to make that a repressed memory!!! I will have pics up later today of my skinnies. My car is going to be the only mustang in the world to have these skinnies according to bogart as they have only made like one other set. I got the bogart D10's, but I had them "bolted" to match my RR10's that I will be running on the street. I truely doubt I'll ever drive much with the 15X4" skinnie up front and the 17X10.5" out back, but if I do they will match as closely as possible. I took a gamble, hopefully it pays off. i just wanted to be a little different.

BTW- I just remembered you have PBR front calipers, they overhang even more. I decided right before I bought my bogarts to add them to my car and it caused me to have to go with additional offset. I got the driverside caliper on last night finally. I still have to grind down the ear where the caliper bracket bolts to on the passeneger side. Did you use both the driver and passenger side bango bolts from a 99-newer car, or just the pass side? Thanks!

Paul- I barely had to grind either side.l I was expecting to really take some material off, but ended up just taking off the casting line on the spindle. I had to use the banjo bolts that came with my junkyard calipers. The 94-95 brake lines can be used if you grind off the tab on the passenger caliper. I guess you already know that, since you have that one on. I got the steel braided lines from summit for $63. They really make a difference. I really want to see your wheels on the car. I bet they will be incredible. My newest plan is to get some 20x10 torq thrust for the rear. I know it wont hook worth a damn, but should look bad ass. I am looking into it.
