18x9 Bullits?

Does anyone have some pictures of 18x9 aftermarket Bullits on their car. I am looking at getting the wheel replicas 18x9 silver Bullits 36mm offset with P255/45/18 tires. They have a 1.75 inch lip on the wheel and either come with a cobra emblem or ZR center cap. I just want to see how they look on a 05+ mustang.

Here are 18X9's from Mustangtuning.com. They have since changed their name to something else (can't remember the new name) They come w/ cobra centercaps. I replaced them w/ the tribar pony centercap. These wheels are not deep dish, but do have a much larger lip than the stock wheels. Hope this helps.

I love the over all Look of the DD bullitts...But having them both DD in the front in addition to the rear is a little overkill IMO.

Is there a company that sells 18x9 anthracite bullitts for 05 Mustangs that are not deep dish? So I would then run 18x9 Regular Bullitts in front and then 18x10 DD bullitts in the rear.

You said they arent DD but they look like they are pretty deep dish to me...

Im curious because Im looking for anthracite bullitts with a chrome lip that aren't DD so I can run them in the front, and use 18x10 DD for the rear.

Well those used to be on my black '05 so I had them for a while - yeah they aren't DD but they have a deeper lip than stock. American Muscle/Mustang Tuning does NOT carry them anymore in that style... the only place I know that MIGHT still have some is MRT - give them a try.

Also note - my original plan for the set-up on my 06 was standard 18 by 9s in front and only DD in the back. When my order showed up, they were all deep dish - put them on and immediately glad they were - I really ended up liking it alot.

They aren't deep dish They just have a little more lip than stock ones. Nowhere near as much lip as the DD 18x9 or 18x10s that americanmuscle currently sells.

Yeah, but a friend of mine is running 18x9 and 18x10 all deep dish, and Im not a huge fan of the look. So Im really not sure what Ill end up doing...

Does anyone here know if I would be able to fit the American Muscle 18x10 DD Bullitts on all four corners (275/40/18) with some Steeda Ultra-lites?

http://www.americanmuscle.com/black-...8x9-18x10.html

Would they stick out past the fender lips? Would the front rub the fenderwell? Would these interfere with any other suspension mods?

I'm wanting to go the same size all around, so I could stick with 18x9s if the above is not possible.

Thanks

Here's what I have on my car-
18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear mounted on Deep Dish Chrome Bullitts from Discount Tire.
