18" Wheels for my '98 GT

[tjm73]

I found a set of 18" wheels that I like a lot. They are 18x8.5" and 18x9.5". Are thay any issues with 18" wheels that one should consider when thinking about stepping up to 18's?

They're a little heavier than 17's and tires are more expensive........

I have 18X9 Cobra R's all around. I went with an aftermarket front sway bar (Steeda tubular) and had an issue with the passenger side wheel rubbing on the sway bar during full left turns. My remedy was to use quarter inch wheel spacers on the front. I have 275X35 tires and had no problems with them rubbing.

I'm thinking about wheels that are non-traditional wheels for a Mustang. They're not rice either (at least i don't think so). They are something you'ld more likely see on a BMW M series car. I think they're schweet.
