Nice....I've always been a big fan of the Roush wheels. Very classy looking, without going overboard IMO. 
And I hope since you're trading two brand new 18x10 wheels for two of his (Matt94GT) used 18x9 wheels that he's at least going to cover the shipping back and forth between both pairs?

Lol, it's not like i don't want to. But NT555's don't come in 295's or 305's - not much of a choice there.
Thanks!. It's not a straight trade, i'ma at least get his 80% KDWII tires on the 18x9's and i have no tires on these.Nice....I've always been a big fan of the Roush wheels. Very classy looking, without going overboard IMO.

Yeah, me neither - ha. Can anyone recomend a cheap tire that hooks like a NT555 with 280-300 treadwear that comes in a 295 or 305??
Thanks
Thanks

Khumo's are that highly priced, ive had them before, gave some good grip, and if worst comes to worst, theres always ....Sumitomos
Might not work out, Matt94 owner of sn95forums has told me he has forged RR03's, they do not look like RR03's since the spokes dont go all the way out to the lip like mine, unless they are the 20x8.5" RR01's they aren't forged either.
They are the cast 18x9's ones which are worth less than half of mine. I have to figure out if it'd look good to sport those up front and mine out back - cuz i cant put 18x10's on front.
Might need to make a photoshop thread to see how it'd look.
this is how they should look:

you mean have lipped wheels in the front but not in the back? 
you cant just sell two of the 10's and get a couple of forged 9's from somewhere else??

It's not really a lip, the spoke just dont go all the way out to the edge, the spokes look pretty much the same. By not going all the way out they sorta hug the front brakes, which looks cool:
The back would look bigger since they actually look like 19's sitting here. Giving it a bit of a racked look.
There is no such thing as RR03's in a 18x9 appearently - thought there was due to Matt's car. But 08 mustangs just run 18x10's all the way around. I could have two wheels cut 1 inch - but i dunno how much that'd cost or how that'd mess up my spacing.

I dig the wheels u have, but Im gonna be honest & say that I like the ones with the small lip better than the ones with no lip...
But mine are forged! Lol, i hear ya man. i wish his were 17's, 17's in that style in the front would look sweet if you ask me accompanied by my 18x10's.

Ask Matt if he wants to still switch them, thinking about a photoshop of it. Or paying a shop to take off an inch or so. Not sure how that'll mess up my spacing orientation though.
I measured and it's a 184mm backspacing, 278mm width (over 11"!!) so that means 45mm offset. Anyone know if taking off an inch out of the middle will get it closer or further away from where our rims need to be?
Edit: Exactly like this i guess:

Well. 1 inch out of 184 backspacing is 25.4mm.
That makes the new BS 158.6 and width 252.6 making an offset of 32.3.
My Bullitt 18x9's are 151/24 so taking off an inch would actually help put it where it needs to be!
I'd need a 7-8mm spacer which is closest to a 1/4" (6.4mm).
That means a 152.2 BS and a 25.9mm offset - pretty darn close to my current 151/24.

And for the back:
18x10's for Sn95's are 161/22
Mine are:....................184/45
So that's a 23mm disparity, which can be solved by a .9" spacer. Or a 1 in spacer actually pushing my wheels more flush to the wheel wells like 18x10.5's
Math FTW?
