calmustang.comcalmustang.com is selling take-off gt bullitt-style rims. These are off the '05s, are slightly different from the previous style, but are going for $999, with tires!

I was exceited until I read they will only fit 05's. It was my understanding that they would also fit OUR bodystyle!

(and I even think I saw a 99-04 v-6 with those exact rims on the car driving around my house...!!!)

any info?

Hey the 2005 Bullitt rims WILL fit on our body style of car bud. I just put the Bullitt rims directly off of a 2005 Mustang GT on my car yesterday! They look great by the way. No problems so far! Oh yeah btw, I have a 99 v6, hope this helps! Good luck man!

I was under the impression that because of the different offset, the '05+ wheels couldn't be used on earlier cars. Anyway, I would think that you could find a set of SN-95 Bulitts for cheaper.

they can work but the offset is differant. all you would have to do is get some wheel spacers. im not sure which size and bingo your set to go

FYI The 05/06 Bullits Must Use THE 05/06 Center Cap options. The 04/Prior Bullits and the Replica Bullits use a Recessed Cap. The Good News is you can Use the Pony Centers or Pony Spinners.

yellerpony- WOOOO-EEEEE!!! I am definitely buying those rims! You didnt need to put wheel spacers, did you?

05stangkc -- the center caps wont be a problem- they already come with them. I might even consider the spinners too, because they make the rims look so much better.

There aren't any spacers on them. They do rub a little bit if you crank the wheels all the way, but it is at the very end just before you hit the stoppers anyway, so not a big deal really
