if you get the sn rear make sure the wheels you choose are no wider then a 9" rim if you choose a fox length then you can go 10" rim in the rear

Im keepin fox length...i love 10" wide rims. Looks beefy not to mention gives a little better traction

I got 10" wide dd bullitts with a 5/16" spacer and sits perfectly flush on rolled fenders with no rubbing ever, lowered 1.5" in the back. Looks the same as an sn95 rear end with 8" wide rims but i could go up to 315's instead of 255's

do the 05 offset rims look different than the sn95 rims? (bulitts for example)

Did u do the 05 offset on all 4 tires or just the rear two?
Btw what is the offset for an 05? 30mm?

Do it right get fox length With NRC brackets and u can run run either 94-04 gt or cobra

No there are no difference when you buy aftermarket wheels. The offset in the rear are 05 offset which is 40-42mm offset depending on wheel design.

If you're going to a factory 03-04 bullit wheel and a 05-06 bullitt wheel, they maybe different, but didn't own either, so can't truely confirm on this. But companies that make replica wheels, (Cobra, Bullitt, saleen, and anything else) they typically have 1 cast/pattern for each style.

Doing it this way, isn't doing it wrong, it's just another way of getting what you want.
