First off, I have a Black 2006 Monte Carlo SS. Hopefully will have pictures soon, but new to the site today.

I'm looking at some Mustang Bullitt wheels, and possibly these tires as it comes as a package (see below), but not too sure on NITTO's.

(4) 18x9 Black Deep Dish Bullitt Wheels
(4) NITTO Extreme Performance NT555 255/45-18 Tires
Free Mounting & Balancing
Free optional nitrogen fill
Fits 2010-2012 V6 and GT Mustangs


My concerns come with, whether or not these wheels will bolt up on my monte, I have seen a previous generation monte with these rims from another user here though, so I;m thinking they would.

Also, my other concern is with the tpms..I know the tires and rims can be ordered with them, but for the mustangs..so not sure if I would want to do this, or can simply swap the ones I have now out somehow or what the situation is.

Anyways, any opinions or information would be great, thanks guys and gals!

 

Welcome to the Forum..

 

welcome to the forum.......

bullitt wheels..... 114.3x5 (mustang size) will fit, but could develop issues? I didn't have any during the time I ran them for about 2 yrs. And I did have TPMS sensors that were already installed on them when I bought the car. I'm not at all sure about backspacing or anything like that? When I had new wheels installed there was no issues with the new wheels which were 115x5.

new wheels as of April 2011......

 

Thanks for the info, seems like they will bolt up from what ive seen, just need to find out a little more about the tpms to buy them reuse or what..

 

Im not sure if 9in wide wheels will fit up front. I cant confirm or deny this tho. I have 8" wide bullitts and the tire is VERY close to rubbing on the strut plate. Any wider and it would. I would think it would be close to rubbing the wheel well when you turn as well.

 

I havn't been able to look into this any further, but I'm not sure why they wouldn't I guess since the stock rims are 9's all the way around..but then again im not sure

 

The stock rim isn't an 18x9

 

the SS wheels are 18x7. the 9s will fit. isnt that what silverbullett is running. we discussed this in a previous thread. do a search he gave me offset and sizing info. even included the site he got his. prices were good.

 

Ah, I was mistaken on the stock wheel size then, coulda swore they were 9's but Ive seen pictures of his, and i know they were 18x9 with 34 offset, not sure on tire sizing, but doubt that would vary much.
Ill see if I can find the thread..or contact him
Also thinking about the tpms some more, as to my knowledge these are located in the valve stems, so should just be able to swap these out?
