Hey everyone I’m Justin with AmericanMuscle.com, and I’m taking a look at our race inspired FR500 wheels for all 94-04 Mustangs. These wheels are inspired by the factory built turnkey racecar the Ford Mustang FR500. Now these cars were built for one sole purpose: to be all out track monsters using beefed up suspension, and a slightly more radical engine. Now the styling of these wheels is drawn from the more aggressive racecar appearance that differentiated these models from their road going counterparts. Our FR500 wheels are available in both 17 and 18” diameters, and your choice of either black, black chrome, anthracite silver, or chrome finish. Now you can buy these wheels individually if you like, however the smart move would be to take advantage of one of our pre built tire and wheel combinations, that pair your new FR500 wheels up with some of the better performing tires on the market today, in sizes that are guaranteed to fit your ride without rubbing, even if you’re lowered an inch or two. Not only that you get to take advantage of our free shipping and handling, free mounting and balancing, and optional nitrogen fill. Now the wheels are available in both staggered and non staggered fitment and with the always cool deep dish feature. Now deep dish refers to the lip around the wheel itself, this means that the face of the rim is set further back from the rim, resulting in a nice thick lip which looks very cool. As I mentioned before you can get the wheels in a staggered fitment which simply means your rear wheels and tires are going to be slightly wider than your fronts giving you that classic muscle car look. That’s exactly what we’ve done on our 2000 V6 behind me, got the black 18x9’s up front, and as you can see we’ve got the black 18x10’s out back, giving us that really tough stance. This will also help our traction as well, thanks to the fact that we get to run a slightly wider rear tire, helping us get that power down to the ground. To give you an idea of what some of the different finishes look like we’ve equipped our 98 GT on the lift there with a set of anthracite silver FR500’s. Next to that on our Dynojet we have our 2000 GT, sporting the very sharp chrome finish. Whatever finish you decide to go with, rest assured knowing that we here at AmericanMuscle have your back with a 1 year warranty on all finishes, and a lifetime structural warranty. When you receive your new set of wheels from AmericanMuscle you’ll find that installing them is as easy as ordering them, all you need to do is simply crack your lugs loose first while your car is still on the ground, then jack the car up and swap the wheels. Doing all of that takes you about an hour using standard hand tools and a floor jack. If you’re a fan of racecar styling and you want your ride to be inspired by a true purpose built racecar, then you’ll definitely want to check out a set of our FR500 wheels for your Mustang.

Mounting & Balancing: AmericanMuscle offers professional mounting and balancing on all wheels and tires when purchased together on the same order. This will allow you to swap out your old wheels for your new set when they arrive.
What is TPMS? The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS for short) is a factory installed safety feature on all 2007 and newer Ford Mustangs that alerts you when your tire pressure drops to an unsafe limit.
How do I keep my TPMS feature? Aftermarket wheels do not come with TPMS sensors. However, if you select 'Add TPMS Sensor Kit' and your specific year range from the options listed above, we'll install the TPMS Sensors in your new wheels!
For more Information, check out TPMS Sensor Kits or TPMS Tool in detail.

What is the backspacing and offset for these, im looking to put 275/40r17 nt05s on these on the rear of my 2012 gt
The backspacing for this wheel is 6.2" (158mm) and the offset is +30mm (1.2").
These came with black center caps and I want to match the center caps to the metal/silver on the wheel just for another look. What center caps will be a match? Brushed? Silver? Thanks for your help, American Muscle really is a great place for all stang parts!!
My current rims are 16x7 will 17x9 fit?
These will work just fine yes.
Will these fit on a 2000 v6 base model mustang
The Staggered 17x9/10.5 FR500 Style Wheel & Mickey Thompson Tire Kit will fit the 2000 V6 Mustang.
I have a 1996 Mustang Gt, I currently have a 315 size tire on the rear , will these FR 500 Black Machined Wheels fit my car?
Yes, this wheel will fit on your 1996 Mustang GT without an issue but if you want to keep the same 315 tire size in the rear, you will need a wider wheel than a 9" wheel. We would recommend a 10.5" wide wheel to accommodatea 315 tire.
The FR500 Style Black Machined Wheel & Sumitomo Tire Kit will be the HTR Z tires.
With 275/40R17s on all four 17x9 FR500 Black Machined wheels, your cost would be $996.72. However , we cannot guarantee that those wider tires will clear on your mustang.
Hello! The thing that throws off the calibration is the rolling diameter, so you must factor in tire size as well. When going with a rear wheel that large, I would almost definitely say you will want to calibrate your speedometer.
Unfortunately, this kit is only designed for the 99-04 model Mustangs. We do offer the FR500 wheels for your 96 GT. They can be found by following the link below. http://www.americanmuscle.com/94-98-mustang-wheels-rims.html#shop-by2
The 17x10.5 wheel is deep dish.
The Staggered FR500 Style Black Machined Wheel & Sumitomo Tire Kit - 17x9/10.5 (99-04 All) will have the same bolt pattern however these are designed to have the correct offset and back spacing for a 99-04. You would need to test fit these on your 2013.
Absolutely not!!!! I have 18's on mine and get lots of compliments!! Looks awesome!
Yes, definitely. You can use a 245/45-17 tire on these wheels without any problems.
These wheels weight between 21 and 22 lbs using the stand on the scale, then stand on the scale with the wheel method.

Review from FR500 Style Black Machined Wheel - 17x9 (94-98 All)
Nice Wheel!
Installed on a 1995 Ford Mustang Gt with Maximum Motorsports Coil Overs and Control Arms Front and Rear (factory offset). Clearance on the Coil overs with the 17x9s and 275s is very very close. Wheels and tires look great and bolted right on. Wish there was a machined steel without the black insert option but still happy with how it looks.

For every
Have been looking for three years. Was never sure what would look right on the white pony. Had looked at all black style and chrome. Saw these but the photos on the site did not show a white car with black convertible. But the more I looked at it the more I liked them. I order them on Sunday they arrive Friday and installed on Sunday. Very happy with the rims and tires.

Review from Staggered FR500 Style Black Machined Wheel & Mickey Thompson Tire Kit - 17x9/10.5 (99-04 All)
Great Looking Wheels !!
What a change from my chrome bullitts , went from the 9" all around to these machined staggered FR500,s , the look is awesome , the first day out we got several thumbs up from people on the road , the Mickey Thompson tires handle great , they are smooth and quiet , considering the width of the 315,s on the back that's amazing , overall I'm very happy with the set and would recommend them . You just cant beat the look of the 315's stuffed under the back hahaha

AMAZING
After a stock wheel of mine cracked I had the choice of replacing it or replacing them all. I chose replacing all of them and man was that a great choice. These wheels are amazing they make the black look so much sleeker.

Review from FR500 Style Black Machined Wheel - 17x9 (94-98 All)
Most complements on any wheels I've owned
I've been looking at new wheels for my 1995 to replace the Cobra R wheels that has been on it since 2001. Loved the look of the FR500 wheels but didn't like the finishes offered. American Muscle was the only place that offered the black machined wheels and I fell in love with them. Love the contrast it offers without having to run the played out solid black wheels everyone else is running. Ordered on a Sunday night and they showed up at my house on Wednesday afternoon. Packaging was awesome and the tire shop that installed the tires commented on how nice the wheels are. Had them on the car for four days and have received more complements on them than I did in the 15 years I had the Cobra R's on the car.

Great wheels and tires!
Can't believe how great these look on my Redfire Pearl '04. Just the right (IMO) balance of black and bright polished aluminum. No clearance issues except with the tailpipes on my Pypes catback, didn't actually rub but were maybe a little too close,had to reset the pipes in the mufflers and hangers,OK now. Size on the tires are awesome and they ride great. You'll need some slash guards (aka mudflaps) on the back those 315's are WIDE.
