Need help determining what wheels and tires will fit your S650 Mustang? Check out LMR's 2024-Present Mustang Wheel & Tire Guide!
With a new look, the 2024 Mustang kicked off the S650 Generation with a powerful Gen 4 Coyote and newly designed wheels. While Ford did a really good job with the new wheels for the 2024 Mustang, as car enthusiasts, we are always looking for ways to make our Mustangs an expression of our personality. Aftermarket wheels are one of the most popular mods that car enthusiasts use to upgrade their vehicles.
At LMR.com, we understand that S650 owners are actively looking for new wheels for their cars, so we have put together an S650 Mustang wheel and tire fitment guide to help you determine what wheels will work best for your Mustang.
If you're uncertain about your rim size, consider the wheel's diameter, width, offset, backspacing, and bolt pattern when estimating its dimensions. Let's look closer into each to give you a better idea of what to look for when measuring wheels:
When measuring a wheel's diameter, take two measurements into account: the Overall Wheel Diameter and the Actual Wheel Diameter. The overall diameter is from the outer lip to the opposite outside lip, while the actual diameter is from the inside barrel to the opposing inside barrel. If tires are mounted, the third number on the tire sidewall (e.g., 17 in a 245/45/17 tire) indicates the wheel's diameter in inches.
When determining wheel width, measure from the barrel section or real rim width, not the entire outside rim width. This is crucial, especially if you have wide wheels and need to make adjustments to ensure a proper fit on your Mustang.
Wheel offset is the distance between the hub mounting surface and the wheel's centerline. It's vital when shopping for Mustang wheels. There are three types of offsets: Positive (hub faces the wheel's face), Negative (hub faces backward on the wheel), and Zero (hub's mounting surface is parallel to the wheel centerline).
A Positive offset means the hub mounting surface is closer to the wheel's face.
The Negative offset is the polar opposite of a positive offset, in which the hub mounting surface is closer to the back of the wheel.
Finally, Zero offset occurs when the hub's mounting surface is parallel to the wheel centerline.
Backspacing is the distance between the wheel's mounting surface and the reward edge of the wheel. Knowing your S650 Mustang's backspacing is crucial for assessing clearance between the wheel and inner fender, preventing potential clearance issues during adjustments.
Identify the bolt pattern on your S650 to find the right wheel type. Most S650 Mustang wheels have a five-lug pattern with a 114.3mm bolt pattern, commonly denoted as 5x114.3mm. Now that you have these essential measurements, you can determine the appropriate wheel and tire size for your needs!
Depending on the year and model, Ford has used various offset and backspacing combinations for the Mustang. For the specific S650 Mustang generation, which includes the model years 2024-present, we provide details on factory wheel diameters, bolt patterns, stud sizes, and center bore. Below, we outline additional wheel fitment specifications for the 2024-present Mustang EcoBoost, Mustang GT, or Performance Pack vehicles:
Determining the appropriate tire size for your S650 Mustang is a commonly asked question. To simplify this decision-making process, we've compiled all the essential information into a comprehensive guide. A favored configuration among customers is the staggered setup, featuring wider tires in the rear compared to the front. Below, we outline the recommended tire sizes for the front, drag front runners, and rear:
Given that tires constitute the sole point of contact between your Mustang and the road, understanding the specific type of tire you need is important. For the current S650 Mustang generation, there are three distinct tire options to consider:
Choosing the right type of tire depends on your driving preferences, intended use, and the performance characteristics you prioritize. Whether you are looking for daily driving comfort, enhanced drag racing performance, or dedicated drag strip applications, selecting the appropriate tire type ensures optimal performance and safety for your S650 Mustang.
