Yup, as I mentioned above my friend uses the 18x10" SVE Drifts with 275/40R18 at all 4 corners of his 07 GT ... no rubbing, car is lowered with the FRPP springs.

cheers

Nope, the offset on those SVE wheels seems to be close to the perfect compromise for all 4 corners, no spacers needed. I know the Mustangs running in Grand-Am Cup (now Continental Challenge) used to run two different offset 10" BBS wheels, but now they have a different 10" that fits front and rear.

Another one to consider that is nice and light at just under 20 lbs. is the D-Force wheel available through Vorshlag Motorsports:

D-Force LTW5 18X10" Racing Wheel, Mustang (S197, 5x114.3) - Vorshlag LLC

Pricier for sure at $309 US a corner, but the offset, weight, and brake clearance is perfect for a Brembo equipped Mustang.
