im trying to buy some rims off ebay and the guy says they only fit 05+ mustangs... but i think he's just trying to make some extra money since he's trying to sell "05+" rims for twice the price. it says the wheel offset is 24mm, the backspacing is 5.95 inches and the bolt pattern is "5x4.5 or 5x114.3" theyre 18x9 which i know will fit for sure... can i buy these "2004" rims?

if you want to check out the rims CLICK HERE...

 

They will fit but the offset is way wrong and they won't look right.

 

If he says that they're for a 94-04, you're better off believing him. Putting rims meant for a 94-04 on an '05? You'll have turning issues, handling issues, the rims will sit funny and look, um. Not nice.

The offset and backspacing are completely different on an 05+.

If you put 04-prior wheels on an 05+ car the tires will stick about 3 inches outside the wheel wells.
