Installed 18x10's in rear and it still doesn't look right.

I bought a new set of staggered FR500's for my car and was disappointed when I saw that the rears were still tucked in as much as the stock ones were. The set is 24mm front and 22mm rear offset which is correct for a 94-04 cars. Is the IRS more narrow than a solid axle? I seem to recall the same wheels looking perfect on a 04 GT.

I appreciate it guys.

04 GT does have a wider axle base over a IRS....just get a 1/2" wheel spacer

As Tim said, you need a spacer, wheels look great though!

My 10.5 replica wheels look the same way without a spacer

The IRS has a similar offset to 94-98 Mustangs, not 99-04. Get a spacer if you want them out a little more.

what size tires? my 10.5 look pretty beefy

I have 18x10.5 AFS wheels and I needed a 3/8 spacer to make it sit flush with the fender.

+1 yes, have this too

I like having wheels "fender flush" instead of sticking out to far.

A spacer will fix your concerns..

My cars passenger side sticks out a little farther than the drivers.. drives me crazy lol

 

[99FiveOh]

Appreciate the replies, I'll get spacers.

FYI the irs is the same width as 99-04 solid axle I know cause my wheel sit in the same spot exactly as my solid axle that came out of my mach.

You running extended studs with those spacers or no?

 

[05satinGT]

[KyleSVT]

Ok cool thanks. I'm getting some 18x9, 18x10 black saleens over the winter and don't wan't they to be tucked under the body lol I want them to be flush

 

[05satinGT]

Yeah they're good to have the studs. They look cool too which is half the reason I got them lol

I'm pleased with my 1" adaptor spacers , here's a pic on stock cobra rims with stock size tires.

I know a lot of people dislike the adaptors, but I've run them on trucks before and have never had any issues. You Just need to make sure you purchase hub centric ones.
