New Mustang Wheel that fits FD

Just saw this today - should be available next month.

If you want a simple light 18x10 wheels that fits the FD, this will fit.

I think those would look good on an FD. Simple but clean.

Those D-Force wheels are popular with the Spec Miata, Spec E30 and BMW race and track guys as well. Here is some more info w/ offsets from Phil's Tire Service:

I got mine for my Spec Miata from Phil's. Great service and pricing.

Thanks for sharing, those are also some nice looking wheels.

I have Forgestar 18x10+50 on all 4 corners.

+45 or even these +43 would have definitely been better in the rear.

Even with Improved Racing trailing arms I am still getting some rubbing with 285/30/18.

+43 would work in the front as well. I am running a 5mm spacer in the front to deal with some brake clearance issues. Not the typical caliper clearance, but rotor hat clearance to the wheel center.

No bad. Its a clean looking wheel. And it's on the light side for something it's size.
