Questions about Wheel Fitment

[jcart953]

I have a 2017 GT, and I was looking to purchase some Mach E.6 wheels and planned on going with a 20X10 square set up with 285/35/20 tires. However, the Mach E.6 wheels I found on CarID and eBay state they don't fit even though they state they fit the 2018 EcoBoost :/. Can anyone confirm if they would work?

Based on the description, they have the 5X114.3 bolt pattern. Here's the eBay & CarID link:

… yeaaah. That 42 offset is the problem. Needs to be 35-40 to fit the front w/o a spacer and some people report contact at full droop with et 40 wheels. 40 is tight, 35 is better.

You could throw on a +5mm spacer on the front and probably “make it work” but as is, it probably shouldn’t clear a stock front suspension.

Doesn’t say what the center bore is. You’d really like them to be a center bore which is a direct fit and not something which needs a centering ring adapter.

Thanks for the response. I just couldn't understand how they listed the wheels for fitting the EcoBoost but none of the other models. For any future reference if someone is interested and wants to attempt the wheels I did find them under another website with the same part number stating they did indeed fit the GT. However, I decided not to attempt it as I didn't want to play around with restocking fees.

Thanks again for your response.
