Hahahahah!

Good luck getting rid of THOSE wheels!!! I have a set of those very wheels and tires in perfect shape in my garage that I took off my 'Stang when I bought a set of Fanblades off another TMS member.

I have listed them here, on another 'Stang BBS, and on e-Bay for the princely sum of $300 OBO and have had NO luck in selling them.

They are a freaking albatross, a red-headed stepchild, etc... etc...

Good luck!!!!

LOL - I sold mine for $125.00 - cold hard cash and felt like I was getting a deal!

Good luck though - the guy that bought mine liked them better than the grey bullets on his 05. ??????

Those you want are the unpolished, silver painted version. You really want those? Hmmm. I got my polished Fanblades from Tire Rack to replace my stock bullits.

Yeah, I saw those. They're pretty expensive aren't they? It came to over 2 thousand dollars by the time you added in the TMPS stuff.

Why did Ford every offer those wheels. I find is amusing Ford charged an extra $175 over the better looking Bullitts. You're better off buying a take off set of Fanblades on Ebay. No one will ever trade you 18" wheels for those ugly things.

I have a set of 06 bullitts in good condition. I think about selling them all the time but after reading these posts , it seems not worth the effort. I had your wheels the 17" cast and they looked great IMO on my former 06 black. I hated them on my 07 Grabber Orange and wanted the one color silver 17" bullitt so that is what I have now. Good luck wit the trade.

You might consider keeping that set for winter.I ended up giving a set like that to my nephew for his V-6 Mustang for his birthday.

Where are you located? -because I won't ship these. These are brand new takeoffs with tires mounted with less than 50 miles. The tires still stink like new rubber.

I like the machined cast wheels, the wheels should make a good looking car look better, but they can't help the ugly ones!
