    You may have an offset issue and the rims might stick out past fender opening. 99-04 s95 mustang rims don't fit 03+ panther chassis.Not sure of Saleen wheels, Their offset might be way off the 50mm marauder offset.

    What type of tire are they using with the 305/45/18? I need some grip since the 3500 stall was installed?

    drag radials...however they are pricey, suck in the rain, don't corner as well since designed for straight line, maybe get 5000 miles from them depending on burnouts. and can brake stuff since traction so much better..not always, but it has happened.

    My Hankooks are no good for traction. I need something better, but these still look new
