2015 Mustang Wheel and Tire Sizes

[canadian.bacon]

thanks, is yours a '15?
curious, mine only has the payload, tire size, tire pressure, but not rim size.... :/
the sticker by the driver side, right?
also, the dealer said the bolds are 5x115. The manual says M14x1.5. Most of the other sources say 5x114.3 - so which one is it?

Mine is a 15 and there are two stickers on my door jamb.

Nothing about the wheel studs is 5x115. Dealers are idiots, that's to be expected.
The bolt pattern on real Fords is 5 on 4.5" or 5x114.3 in metric terms.
The thread of the lug nuts I'd have to look up... not sure.
I did, it's M14 x 1.5 pitch.


Don't mix up bolt pattern and thread size. One tells you how many studs on which bolt circle diameter, the other tells you the size of the studs and nuts. ;)

perfect, thanks. i am planning on getting rims for the summer and I was looking at 17x7.5 and 17x8 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
I think the offset is somewhere in the +35 area, I am looking at +20 to +45
i will be running the stock tires, they seem to be pretty decent.

You do not want 17x7.5 et 45 wheels!
They'll be tucked in another 8mm over stock and will look like crap imho.

 

[canadian.bacon]

long live the spacers
they will look ok with 17x8...
so the stock is +33?

 

[VIN666]

No... 37.5 I believe. 37+8=45 in the US of A.

Northern beaver math may vary

Why use spacers when you can just buy wheels that fit?!
I'd suggest you take some measurements and use a page like www.willtheyfit.com to compare setups.

LOL, i thought about the negative difference for some reason and i put the numbers wrong. The math is the same up here.
I am looking all over the place cause it is really hard to find black wheels that fit like stock and are under $1000. I am not too pretentious, just a clean design, black and decently priced.

Searched for 3 minutes.

Hey guys. I'm still waiting on the car, but I'm looking for parts early.
I want to make a DD with a good chunk of power. I was set on Rota Grids, they look awesome on jap cars and i saw the GT350 has some that look like that. What i don't know is if they are 18 or 19 wheels and how will Rotas look on the stang. I'm also considering some Vossens, as the car is not quite jap style and it can be a blend of sportiness and style.

How will Vossens affect the driving of the car? I will take tremendous care of the car, but our streets suck and I don't want to make a 600 hp car that will be driven 20 mph, due to fear the rims will crack or smth.

In conclusion, I bet i got you all confused, I'm confused myself, as I don't really know what I want... I want a sporty car that will deliver a good chunk of power to the wheels. I will not drag it, I will DD sport+, yet I want it to look awesome.
What do you recommend?

Thanks.

Anybody out there making factory Reps yet? (Touchy subject I know)

It would be nice to get a 10" rear that matched my factory 20 to keep for winter tires.

Then have something else for my summers.

Thanks FeedtheNeed for factory wheel offsets.We in Australia have got another 6 months to wait,but that gives us time to plan. I intend to change GT PP Black wheels as soon as I get car.I will get 20x10's allround offset 40,running 275/35x20.Hopefully these will clear strut at front.Could somebody with GT PP please tell me the clearance of 255/40x19 on 9 inch wheels(offset 45) to the front strut? Then I can work out if my new wheels/tyres will fit without spacers.Thanks.
