2025 Mustang Mach-E Premium
I went down a rabbit hole yesterday trying to find some wheels for my 2025 Premium ER in Shadow Black that I picked up on Saturday.

Tire size, wheel width and offset has turned my brain to mush.

I am running the OEM premium wheels which I believe are 19x7, 5x108 and +47.5mm offset

I'm looking at a wheel that is 19x8.5 5x108 and +40mm offset.

I don't think the OEM tires will fit right on the new wheel correct? I'm also unsure of how far that will push the wheels out visually. I don't want any tire sticking out from the fender causing more spray from rain and or snow/slush.

Anyone know for sure or have a similar setup?

This is the wheel

You could go with less offset and the tires won't stick out as much as the 275s on my 9.5" wheels (which are flush with the body work) with a +38mm (aftermarket) offset. 😁🐩

You can safely fit up to a 265 section width on an 8.5" wheel but will have to run quite a bit less than stock tire pressure to get optimal tire wear and handling out of the tire. A 265-50R19 will be about 3% taller than the original tire. Note that due to wheel aerodynamics your highway fuel efficiency will be lower and due to the wider tire and lower pressures run your overall efficiency will be lower (the wheel aero will have a more pronounced effect on highway efficiency). 🤔🐩
