MichaelP Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Hi Everyone- (subject line should read coupe..not couple) Im trying to use the stock 18" vert wheel from 2010 gt500 on my 2010 gt500 coupe.. So that I can use a drag radial... Well, i have not heard back from the one dealer that was checking into everything for me.. been about 1 week...figure no news is bad news. The FORD dealer I bought my coupe from says "they dont know if it will work"...."and have no way of knowing if it will work if I order" So, does anyone know?!?!? I hate to order then find out they dont fit or clear the brakes, etc. Any help greatly appreciated. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I hope they fit since I ordered a set of the 07-09 18" gt500 rims for a spare on my 2010. I believe the brakes are the same on all the gt500's from '07 to current, but some one will correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brake calipers have not changed; even on the 2011, and coupe or convertible wheels are interchangable between vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelP Posted February 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Thanks Everyone. I will call and get prices and post. it took half a day to get pricing on the passenger airbag cover so that I can send that in for Carroll's signature. ) the airbag cover is like 211 and some change. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldgus Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 The 18" from the Vert will definitely fit. My dealer confirmed it, and there would be no reason they wouldn't, the rear brakes are exactly the same size from coupe to vert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrhsvt Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Do the vert wheels look different than the coupe for 2010? I was hoping to purchase two for the rear only + drag radial for track days. I'm not sure about this machined vs painted deal and haven't seen the vert wheels in person yet.

GAFSoldier Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 The 2010 18" stock convertible wheels will fit the 2010 coupe and also the 07 - 09 GT500s! The 2010 19" stock wheels will fit the 2010 convertible and all 07 - 09 GT500s! Also the stock 18' wheels from the 07 - 09 GT500s will fit any 2010 GT500s! Why i know this, because i drive at the moment with stock 18" wheels from a 2008 GT500 around with winter tires on and also had for some times the stock 18" 2010 convertible wheels on my 2010 GT500 Coupe.

Ok.. Price for two 18 inch wheels with the center SVT cap and 10 lugnuts is 1318.30... Kinda steep... Geez, I hope the tires are cheaper... M.

Geez, I hope the tires are cheaper... M. If you dont care about the looks, you can get some 18" tires that look like the 07-09 rims from Ford Racing for $200 a piece.
