I'm not sure if they fit physically...but i know they don't fit looks wise. Keep your bling bling on the 'stang.

to wheel hating!

Nope, you'll rub like a mofo! The offset is bad enough but with those 235s you'll really rub. Plus your car will look funky also because the wheel will stick out slightly.

They will rub like a massotherpist!

I have 40mm offset with 215/40 and mine rub a little, only on a big bump and it's not lowered.

Listen to them, there is no way you will be able to drive with a 35mm offset and 235s. It won't rub just a little, you won't be able to go anywhere because the tires will stick outside the wheel well by something like 1/2 an inch. It will look ghetto!

And are these 17s or 18s ?

Most likely, you will rub even with a decent offset. If there's 235s on the rear, Im assuming the rim is 7.5" wide or more ?

Those are huge. Don't plan on dropping your car if you do that.

get the volks from screwdriver if you're gonna get rims. those other rims will not fit and do not look right. you definitely do not need that much of a contact patch for your tires.

you need wide body to fit a 235 tire minimum is a 8inch rim. or 8.5 maybe 9. way to wide for ludes.

35 mm won't fit. I have +40mm on 215/40/17 and I have to shave my rear fender a lil so it won't rub.
