new rims/tires

[2nazty]

Hi Guys

I am a new member here and also a new marauder owner (also my first panther platform vehicle) It is a 2003 marauder, I was wondering what I should be looking for in terms of backspace and offset for rims to use on my car, what I would like to run is eith 18" or 19" deep dish bullitt style rims, in either case I would like to use a 10" wide rim in the back and the widest tires possible without rubbing, can anyone give me any ideas on this?

Thanks

Ron

Welcome bud! stick with even size wheels as the selection is better, and the tires are cheaper, as for offset it depends on the width of the wheel, on a 10" wide wheel a +40 or +45mm offset will be perfect.

i run 20x10s on all fours with a +40mm offset with great clearance.

On the rear 305's are the widest without major surgery to the frame and suspension. On a stock wheel, you can have them widened 1.5" and then cut the outer guard off of the rear shocks to clear.

These are just a bit wider than 305's....

I am running 315/35/20s with no clearance issues. Most s197 2005-2012 mustang rims will fit panthers.
