hey guys, im not the most mechanically smart person when dealing with cars so i have a question about installing new rims...

i have a 2006 v6 mustang with the pony package, and currently have the 17x8 aluminum wheels with Pirelli P235/55ZR 17-inch tires....

now, if i were to purchase 17x9 bullit chrome rims (link: http://mustangtuning.com/ch20mubuwh1.html ), can i just have the body shop transfer over the Pirelli's i have now??? will they correctly fit and be right for the new rims??

sorry for the ignorance lol but thanks for you help!!

im sure those rims will fit fine on ur current tires but seriously think about getting at least some 18s and a lot bigger tires...235 is so weak for a 2005+ stang, try something like 265 in the front and like 295 in the rear, itll make for a much better stance..also this is completely the wrong part of the forum to post this question in

I am running 275's on my 17x9's up front....a 235 on that rim will look like poo.
