Default Mustang Wheels on S2000?

Will these fit? Mustang Wheels

I've always been curious about Stang wheels on an S2. They're cheap & look nice IMO. I know some of them weigh a lot but thats not what my concern. I also wondered about the mustang 17s. I'm only interested in the 5 star spoke type wheels. Let me know guys thanks in advance. & if anyone has tried it post pics please.

offset is wrong....all of the 94-2004 mustang ran a mid offset....usually in the +30mmm range with aftermarket wheels running a little lower to fill out the fender wells

the 05 and new ones run a higher offset...... those might work

why dont you buy some ap2 stocks?. that way its a sure fit. there 9"s all around with unknown offsets as far as i can see.

plus for 450 you can find them with tires if your lucky.

I've just been curious of fitment of the stang wheels. I don't mind if they're the old Stang or old I just like the 5 spoke look the have. The Cobra wheels at super nice.

This thread made me think of a car I saw at the auction about 2 months ago.
It was an 06 with 7800 miles on it.

Are those 15"? The sidewalls look huge.

Offsets are wrong,they weight too much and the register bore is wrong and at best would require hub-centric rings that most likely no one makes.

Tire Rack offers many different styles at different price points that are already proven to fit with the proper tire

Why roll the dice on an un-proven and most likely expensive,in the long run, move ?

With a 9" wheel and 6" backspacing, offset should be 1.5" or (25.4*1.5) = 38mm.

This is aggressive, but may still work from an offset perspective..at least in the rear with some camber. I like the 5 spoke rims on Mustangs, but they should stay on Mustangs. Wheel style is car dependent and I doubt they'll look good on a small, import roadster.

AP2 stocks are not 9" all around??
