    I just found a really good deal on some bullitt rims with new tires for 550... and I wanted to know if they would fit my car right. They are coming off of a 95 mustang, and they are 17x8s. the tires are 245/45/17. Just want to know if i will have any fitment issues or anything on my car.

    Do you know the offset for the wheel? If its around +35mm to +40mm then you are fine. If anything you may have to roll your fenders if you are lowered.

    nope im not lowered... but the offset is +30mm. how about the lug nuts? the stock ones from my car look crappy can i buy these from american muscle?

    only thing im worried about is if they will reach the top of the nut before it actually comes down to the wheel... because our cars have an open end.

    As far as I know, Mustang lug nuts will not work, they are a different thread or size or something. No need to replace your studs though, just use 12mm x 1.50" lug nuts. That's what the stock lug nuts are and they will work, just look bad in my opinion.

    These are the lug nuts I use and I got them from this place.
