Just wondering what everyone thinks, bullitts or spinners on a black vert?

I am sure the handling would be improved, also the wider 17" wheels might look a little better from behind.

Haha, never thought of that

I really like the stock wheels but I wish they came with a little wider tire.

I just like the spinners.

I'm not a fan of the bullits. I think the blades on the '06 look pretty good.

I love my Bullitts. Unfortunately mine are black so I decided against keeping the spinners. Besides, the Cobra emblem caps that came with the wheels are a pretty good alternative.

Waw, that is an expensive wheel for a 17"!!!

Anyone have a picture of a black car with black bullitts? I really want to get wider wheels byt am trying to decide if I should get some GT takeoffs or get Ford Racing black bullits. :scratch:

I'll stick to just Bullitts. To me, spinners on Bullitts seems a bit overkill.

BULLITTS! Some people don't like them because they are "too popular". They are so popular because they just look "right" on the car!

I have the Spinners on my 05 Premium Black Coupe. The car is black w/ the Red leather IUP/ ICUP/ spoiler, etc. and looks GREAT IMHO on those spinners. The tires you see here are the stock BF Goodrich pieces of junk. Since taking this picture I have scrapped those tires and I now run Bridgetone Potenza RE750's in 225/60R/16 size. Perfect swapout for the Spinners. My car handles 100% better. Plus I like the look of the spinners with the 'meatier' Bridgetone tires w/ the more aggressive tread pattern. Since they are only 10mm wider they fit on the spinner wheels w/o any probs. But the upgrade to the look/handling of the car is worth it. I'd stick w/ the spinners and put better tires on them. The spinners look 100% better with the upgraded tires.

Plus, on the popularity factor, you usually don't see upgraded tires on the 16" spinners. So -- its a awsome look you just don't see much of.


I also went back-forth between keeping the factory spinners w/ the blue ford oval on them, or getting the 'tri bar pony' spinners on the black background. Thought that would look better on a new car. All in all i'm glad I kept the stock 'blue oval' spinners because IMHO the super-tiny tri-bar pony logo on the black background on the spinner looks very cheap & plastic-like. Its just too much detail to try to cram onto a little 2 inch circular space so it looks 'crunched' together. I've seen the tri-bar pony logo's on the new Pony package wheels and IMHO they look silly. I'm glad I kept my wheels -- and kept the tri-bar logos to ONLY the trunk emblem and steering wheel center - where they belong!!
