Need a Wheels opinion


Ok I bought these almost a month ago, before I came home. I put them on the car last night. They just don't sing to me like they did when I bought them. I'm starting to think that I should put the bullets back on it or maybe go with a DD Bullet. What do you guys think? They might just end up for sale here real quick.

Not a fan here either.... deep dish bullitts ROCK man... that's what I recently went with on my '06 that I got in July.....

Back in early 2005 when I got my black '05, I got a set of Millie Miglia's I thought would be great for the car.... SAME thing. They didn't CLICK for me on the car.... finally got some 18 by 9 anthracite bullitts and the minute I saw them on the car, I was a happy camper.


Check out the DD bullitts on Discount Tire's site though - they have all finishes and that's where I got my chrome ones..... good prices and you can get mounted and balanced with tires and shipped to you for free.... I love mine....

Well Im gonna go against everyone and say that I do like them! One thing i have learned with owning this car is that if something little bothers you about it, it is going to bother you everytime you see your car. So I say if you really want DD bullits, go get them and be truly happy! Your car still looks real good though

Thanks for the insight. I think I'm gonna hold off a little bit till I get the FRPP handling pack installed and see if that changes my mind. I just got back from an extended drive and I've definately noticed the road noise from the lower profile tires, which is gonna get worse I think with the lower and stiffer suspension. Feel free to continue with the opinions though.
