Will late model mustang rims (2003-ish) fit my 2002 P5?

They are the ones in the image above and they include tires. I know literally nothing about stance and wheel fitment so any help is appreciated.

Here is a guy doing it on his notchback, but I don't know if he modified anything to make it work.

That really does look nice, i think i saw some one had some on his protege here

I found the user that owned that car but he hasn't posted since 2012.

Looks great from the side:

But the stance looks kind of goofy from the back and front:

I think he has rolled fenders.

Im pretty sure thats a 245 tire. Kinda wide for a front wheel drive. And bullitt wheels are every where.

I used to have a 2001 Mustang with those wheels and yes its a 245 tire. They do look great from the side but they are also heavy wheels.

You would not run the stock mustang tire size with those rims, they are the same stud spacing so they will bolt on. The offset will be off and i'm sure the black MSP in the photos is running spacers. I would find something else, they would not look good if your car is stock height.

It was a fun thought, but I agree with you all. Thanks!

On a second note, I got a killer deal on some 16x7's with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. These should work, correct?

They are the ones in this picture:

That is a good looking wheel. Where did you find those? But my thought on that is if your going to buy aftermarket wheels, why stay the same size?

 

[hornsfan10609]

I agree, aside from the universal fitment with all those bolt holes they are alright looking rims but 17s (or 18s but not everyone can pull it off) would look so much better on the car.

17's, IMO look bad with the tiny stock rotors.

I did this for shizzNgiggles. And they fit depending on tire size i guess, but It seemed hella tight and would probably rub when turning. I didn't test the theory tho. I was just getting my stock wheels remounted and I have a set of those.

i tried 245/45/17s on from my wife's old mustang...nope lol

So what size of tire do you think would work on the rim to fit the p5
