I am looking at replica fr500 wheels on ebay. I can get either 17x9 all around or 17x9 up front and 17x10.5. The front 17x9 have 24mm offset and the rear 17x10.5 have 27mm offset. The wheels are made for 94-04 mustang so I assumed they would fit.

Q1: The wheels should fit fine on the coupe correct?

Q2: What is the largest tire I can fit in the front of the coupe fenders? Will 275 40 17's fit upfront on the 17x9s? I will probably get 255 40 17 up front but just curious about the 274 40 17s

Q3: What is the largest tire that will fit in the rear of the coupe fenders? I am looking at 17x10.5 with 315 35 17 in the rear.

Thanks in advance guys as I'm sure somebody already has an answer to this.
