OP, what is the offset on your rear wheels? They look like they poke a bit more than the should.

Edit: never mind, I reread the first post lol.

That tire size with that offset on a 10.5 will not work unless you do a bit of body work.
+43 will be the lowest you can go with out rubbing

Lmao guys he knows all this already. He knows his offset and tires are too wide and it needs bodywork. That's what he is asking about...if anyone has experience pulling the fenderwells/quarterpanel area some to give it more room.


OP just take it to a competent custom shop near you that does the work or buy the tool mentioned by Voodoo earlier.

"Fender is the American English term for the part of an automobile, motorcycle or other vehicle body that frames a wheel well (the fender underside). Its primary purpose is to prevent sand, mud, rocks, liquids, and other road spray from being thrown into the air by the rotating tire."

Ive done them on older model mustangs but not on S550. It's not hard to do, just take your time and go a little at a time. Imo I'd rather do it myself then to trust someone else but that's just me, but I come from a body shop family. It's hard to tell by your pics, but if the tires are protruding past the 1/4 panel, rolling them is not going to help.
Thank you for your help, I know this is an aggressive fitment but I believe I can make it work. I dont want to have recommended fitment and look like most other mustangs. Got to stand out in the crowd! (As long as i can make this work).

Jesus Christ man...The rear quarter panels. Is that better? Technically correct enough? lol
Lol thank you for coming to my rescue. I have only ever heard it called fender pulling but then again all of my friends are in the tuner scene (booo) but Im glad you got what I ment.

YEAH pull the fenders completely off. they'll tuck then for sure


:rolleyes:
Yeah that'll really help! Then I could run some mud tires and go off roading.

I will probably take it to a body shop this week. I was just hoping someone on here has actually done it themselves so i could see.

But to add to my original post. I know my fitment is a little to aggressive to fit perfectly but I wanted something a little different then what I see a lot of people running. Plus the wheel company doesn't offer an offset that would fix this issue in this wheel.

I know fender pulling is something all the tuner boys do to make larger wheel specs work and they have great success with it but I dont see any mustangs doing it. I dont know if this is because they dont know it can be done or maybe it cant be done and everyone knows it. I would like to eventually go widebody but I do not have the funds and I would also like to keep close to the stock body lines.
