Status: offline Hey there I have been drooling over some 20" Black bullet wheels on cruizinconcepts.com but they are for 05+ cars. What would I need to do to make these work?? They are 20x8.5 and 20x10 with 36 & 45mm offset

Well, would help to know the year of your car

Either way, 20's will fit on '99-'04 Stangs, but are a VERY tight fit (no prob on '05+). I recommend 18"s on ANY Stang as you have more options on width and tire sizes.

Status: offline 02 Vert (in title) Yeah I like the idea of 18's but I think black wheels with a polished lip look smaller from the side. So in my mind anyway 18's look like 17's ..... hope that makes sense ..lol The package comes with 245/35/20 and 295/30/20 it seems to me somewhere during my shopping online I saw wheel spacers that advertised they made any 05+ wheel fit 99-04 cars ..... does that sound familiar??

Jazzer to give a hearty "DOH!" not seeing the '02 in title Anyway, I understand that the rim "looks" smaller with black lip against tire, but would still stay with 18"s cuz the rim is still a better size for your car, IMO. I think the black lip also makes your tires look
"taller" and I like the rubber band look myself

As far as spacers, wouldn't think you would need any, but depends on off-set of wheels you want to install. Do some looking around in the Saleen / Roush section as Stangking has 20's on his '00 (think it is an '00).
