nygbrad Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) Sorry yeah they are 245/45's. Not to tall at all. I've had 800sf of wood flooring in the back and the wheels tucked perfectly. No rubbing at all. I'm running cheap Delinte tired because I wasn't sure if I was going to keep these wheels. Still not much road noise unless it's a rough road. Highway is very quiet. I drive it for work and average 100 miles a day with no issues. Edited August 14, 2013 by nygbrad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nygbrad Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I guess I'm just any idiot. I do have 245/40 tires. Don't know why I thought I had 45 series. Sorry about that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red454 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I just bought a 2011 Fusion, and the tires are fair. In '06 I put some Bullits on my '05 GT so I have a set of stock 2005 Mustang GT rims / tires with about 3K miles on them. The Fusion tires are P225/50R17 and the Mustang tires are P235/55R17. Do you notice any difference in the speedometer reading? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey14SE Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Red....with that bit of a difference in overall diameter, your speedo will likely read a hair slower than you are actually going. The Mustang wheels/Tires are gonna be taller than the Fusion ones, and its gonna make your speedo read slower than you are actually going. It may even be enough to make your ABS/Stability Control light come on, but thats less likely. Definietely gonna see a speedometer error though. Im guessing about 6-8 MPH slower than your actual speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im guessing about 6-8 MPH slower than your actual speed. That is about what I figured - on paper it looks like the vehicle will sit about 17mm higher. I will have to figure the circumference and see how much slower, but you are probably close. I will post the results and maybe some pics when the weather is better and I can get the Mustang wheels on the Fusion. Thanks for the input. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red454 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I photoshopped my old GT rims on the Fusion on the left, and on the right is stock... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfields1980 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Does anyone know if 18x8.5 Bullit wheels with +50mm offset, 6.82 in. backspacing will work on my 2010 Fusion? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusionpursuit Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Yes, I have them on my Fusion Sport without any spacers, they clear the stock calipers and work fine, but I did add hub centric rings to match up just to be safe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
