    They will fit , but will stick out more than the factory wheel , you need an 18X8 on a +50MM offset.

    I still think that the oem Sport rims look great. If you want some extra shine, have them pvd coated. I don't think anyone has ever done that to a Sport rim.

    I have a set of TSW mondellos in 18s Id sell cheap that might as well be new.
    18x7.5 front 18x9 rear. 285s on rear are in great shape. 245s on front need replaced.

    I like the stock 17 inch too... But been down this road. Stock wheels are too small and too narrow, and after spending good money on rubber, they remain too small and too narrow -- no matter what size you run.

    Back to wheels above. Offset difference is 10 millimeters more positive, or .39 of one inch wider to outside. That's just at 3/8 of an inch wider to outside. Do you think they'll fit and look boss?

    Wheel experts please speak up!

    I love the Mustang Marauder wheels and above wheels are a solid $500 less with shipping all in. And many stated not to tend toward a Marauder clone (this one s my natural tendency as I love the MMl look).

    These are close, kind of tough looking, and chrome which I want on the Matedor Red.

    How about something different than spokes. I've always liked slot mags. Here's a pic on a large car. My dad had a set on his '65 Sunbeam Tiger and I always thought they looked cool.
