Looking for a 18 X 8 Torque Thrust or Cragar looking Chrome Wheel

[RogV]

Does anyone know of a wheel that size and design? Since my new GT will have 235/50R18's, I need that size. Also, wanting the retro look too.

What about some Bullitt wheels?

While that was a thought, I haven't seen any in 18 x 8 , chrome, and fit a 2019.

ohh. I see. Guess I should have figured that in the title. lol

These are 18x8. But I'm not sure that offset will clear the front brakes. It's only 4mm different than the oem wheels. So you might need a smaller spacer

Little beat up, but nothing a powder coating can't handle

Good deal

Again still might need a spacer

Thanks for checking. I had seen similar for earlier Mustangs but assumed the specs didn't allow use/clearance for today's.

What about getting 18x9 rims and when the OEM tires wear out replacing them with 255s?

Ool.. Good one forgot about those.

They have 18x8...

Did see those before and do like the look. While your point of buying appropriate tires after the current tires wear out is valid, it will take me a long time to get there since my GT is in transit,The 18 x 8's will fit my new tires or vice versu, but the wheel isn't spec'd for 2019's. Thanks for all the ideas.

Mounting your 235s on 8.5 or 9 inch rims would not necessarily be inappropriate. While 235 is probably the minimum you would want to put on a 9, they would fit just fine on 8.5s.

I'm going back and forth over these..........
