Just wanting to know if 05 wheels are different from the other years. Will 2001 cobra wheels fit? Thanks.

Bolt patterns are the same, but the offset is different, so they will stick out too much and look odd.

Bolt pattern is the same but they will stick out too much. The offset is different than the 01-04 Bullitt wheels which do fit without a problem.

Mark, are those the 01-04 Bullitts you have on your car?

Hi Chris, yes they are. Being the impatient type that I am, couldn't wait for the 05's to come out when my car arrived in February. IMO, they fit nicer - to the outside by about 1/4". Will look really good when the Steeda springs go in next couple of weeks.

Hope that helps, Mark.
