Im still confused Ive been looking at www.wheelreplicas.com and am confused about the different offsets. ive seen 18mm,24mm,26mm and 36mm all offsets are 17x9 They list the 4lug cobra Rs as 18mm, the 5 lug cobra Rs they list 24mm or 36mm, 2003 cobra rims are 26mm for the 4 and 5lug wheels and the bullitts are 24mm. It is my knowlegde that offset is the distince from rim center to mating flange (17x9 rim center would be 4.5'') I just dont get rims that wont fit. i want to get the 17x9 bullits front/rear (10.5 will be to large and stick out) with 255/40yr17 bfg ta kd front and 275/40yr17 bfg ta kd rear

Lets see if I can clarify the offsets.

On the 17x9 Bullitt the offset is ~22mm. The offset on the 17x10.5 is ~27mm.

Your tire sizes are fine for the 17x9 Bullitt rims. You can stick a 255/40 to a 275/40 on those rims without a problem.

Call me up if you wanna order them. 610 353 5277. Im Chris...and as of late ive been the one to pick up the phone.

Off topic: this thing made me laugh. :newbie:

Hope that helped!

I am pretty sure that a 10.5 wont fit on a fox chassis but I am not positive.
