Found these on another site. One is the polished fan blade which doesn't look as shiny in the other thread I posted and the other is a painted fan blade. Please don't tell me the painted fan blades are the second wheel option!!!! :bang:

I know there is a rumor that the premium wheel option is supposed to be a 18 inch Bullitt wheel but no pictures have surfaced as of yet. Ford's web site isn't even updated to show what's on the 06 order guide. I ordered my car with the polished fan blades. I'll be getting aftermarket wheels any way so why wait for the premium wheel???

I have seen the 18" Bullitts. Ford shouldn't even waste its time on other wheel options; the Bullitts are gorgeous.

Well personally I wouldnt have anything other than upgraded wheels, just wish they were 18 " or bigger. I dont really think these fanblades look better than the upgraded machined wheels.

What is the finish on the new 18" Bullits? Painted? Chrome? Polished?

You have??? Got a link to them or better yet, a picture? I've only seen the fanblades. I'm hoping to get the bullitts, but I'm not going to wait if it'll keep me from getting the GT in October. I'll just stick with the fanblades.

Are you going to want to sell the polished fanblades after your car comes in, since you are going aftermarket? If so, I would certainly be interested in buying them off of you.

Brad Great News!!!!
Chrome 18" Bullits would have been the first mod I would have made to my car, see sig. below.
Now I find out they will be available from Ford and I don't have to deal with finding aftermarkets that fit right, have the right look and won't break the bank.

This may be pushing my luck but were you able to tell if the spinners could be added to the Bullits?

Possible, I might keep them and use them for winter tires. Then again I may just get plain wheels for that. My car won't be in until at least Oct so I have a while to think about it. I'll post it here in the forum if I decide to sell them.
