So, I'm not a wheel guy, and that's why I'm looking for input. What is the widest rim that can be used on the front of the 2015 Mustang in 19" and 20" diameters? Also, I'm sure the offset will effect this discussion, so please feel free to weigh in on this as well. Just FYI, my preference is to "NOT" have any Lip or dish in the style. I don't want to be worried about rubbing the fenders or the suspension, or not being able to meet full steering lock.


Just looking at the wheels available as stock for all mustangs, it looks like 9" is the widest front offered.... of course the offset would also effect it again, yep I need professional help on this one, since I don't have all the data on suspension geometry and wheel well dimensions.

What are you looking to get? What design? What are your goals?

Posting because I want the exact same info for when I pull the trigger.

I'm looking at preferably 19" CF10's or, as a second choice, 18" CF5's from Forgestar. I do keep seeing 9-9.5" but no wheel company has been willing to try installing anything larger or different for confirmation. I was told verbatim, "just wait, someone will eventually try it." If I could, I'd spend a day changing wheels and taking pictures; I know for sure someone will be winning a sale from me eventually. I'll just have to keep being patient!

We can do a custom set of CF5's 19x9.5 square and will fit. 18" CF5's will also work but those are the only ones from that company to fit in 18's.

Brian@Vossen's install thread satisfied me that 275/35ZR20 tires mounted on 20 X 9.5 wheels with +25 offset are pretty much the limit on the front ... and they look terrific!
