Hey,
Is it possible to put the 18x8.5 235/50- ZR18 wheels off of any 06 GT on an 05 V6? If so thats great if not what do I need to do? My V6 is currently 215/65/R16? Im confused about all this offset stuff.... does it even matter?

If stock Ford Mustang GT wheels,no problem. Put them on. I have 17 in Ford black bullits,fit perfect. Many outher rims fit,all different sizes. Go to tirerack.com,a sponsor of this forum. Look to the right on this page.

I had the 16s changed to the 17s and now have 18 Fanblades. They all fit great... No Problems whatsoever.

You can run anything a GT can run. I have 18x10s out back and 18x9's in front. Tires are 295/45/18's & 255/45/18's.
