Rims from an 05+ will work just fine on our SN-95s, don't really know why they're listed separtely, I've seen Sn-95 rims on Sn-197s, and vice versa.

You're supposed to use 1/2" spacers, the backspacing is different. They'll tuck into the fenders pretty far if you don't.

Yes, and using them without the spacers will wear out related suspension/steering parts much faster than you want. Also, tire sizes are different - so if you get a set, you'll need to replace them with the correct size or recalibrate your speedo.

RE: 2005 rims on a 2003
Not to steal the thread but im kinda in the same boat. I have a 2000 V6 and I found a guy that some 2007 bullit rims 17'. My rims are currentyl 17' off a 97 cobra. So it would still take same tires right? and is the spacer the thing it shows to make your tires wider on americanmuscle? cuz thats the only one I could find was to make 99-04 tires look wider but they also say they wont fit factory rims? these rims are off a 2007 mustang with silver bullit rims....anyone know?
