    I have been looking for a nice set of wheels for my 04 GP, while looking online i found a nice set of BBS wheels, the bolt pattern appears to be 5x114.3... which is the same as our cars, correct?

    Now has anyone seen BBS wheels on an 04+ GP?

    These are the wheels im talking about:

    What size are they? I only like 04+ with 19 or 20 inch wheels.

    bolt pattern is 5x115 on our cars, but 5x114.3 fits. it will depend on the offset and wheel size if they will fit well.

    they'll fit fine. you'd be best off checking to make sure the hub bore is big enough or you may end up having to run spacers or getting the bore machined to fit.

    I just knew they looked familiar, seen them around quite a bit lately, on 2 cars, found pictures online for what I mean. Not sure they will fit tho, check back spacing and wheel width and ALL the points to ensure they will fit





    Now before the Haterade starts, the BBS is prolly just an aftermarket version I know, but just referencing they are most likely modeled after these, so if they follow same design, make sure they will fit before you buy

    The only wheels i would buy would be split spoke that came on some 05s or the competition package.

    I have these dull 16" - 5 spokes and i hate them!!

    yes, most people would recommend 245/45r18 because it is the closest to the stock size tires.

    Some evo's had bbs wheels and so do Sti's both will fit but their hard to find with the right offset and most people want an arm and leg for them.

    Ive tried searching a few mustang forums and ran across a few but most of them guys have staggered setups and only the front 2 would fit most rears are too wide.
