I have wanted to put 18x9 CL-205 Anthracite / Dark Gray wheels on my car. I have seen 2 cars on this site with these wheels. My understanding is they are a pain to obtain and I didn't order any because they want $340/wheel and I'm not set on what tires to mount yet.

Anybody got some good images of a lowered Mustang on CL-205s?

Hey Shaun, are you referring to these?

Now those are very old school and would fit your theme great Shaun!

Good luck!

Yes! The issue is I want a "finely machined" lip and not a polished lip. I have seen 1 set on a car on the net. I tried to order through our local and he told me they said 14 weeks and they couldn't guarantee the gray color, but told him I could paint them. He stopped selling American Racing this year as I had asked again while I was in there getting snows for my Winter car.

If anybody ever sees a set in charcoal or anthracite with a duller machined lip, let me know. I guess I should buy 5 right away since they will probably be impossible to match.

I have them on my 32 Deuce and love the old school look. Those would look good on your stang..

Those are beautiful. Would love to see them on an 08 Bullitt.

I have the old torq-thrust-Ds on our 69, my all time favorite wheel. the ones you posted are the closest Ive ever seen to the old wheel for the new car- would have to see in real life though, as the offset on the new cars is so funky its hard to get that deep lip without curving the spokes...the old 15x8's on our 69 taper outward slightly, on all the newer cars, the 'deepdish' spokes taper inward.

funny a 235 60 15 is really too big for the 69 in the rear, the new car tire/wheel looks like a truck part next to it

I'd still like to get a set of the deep bullitts, diamond turn the lip/blast-paint the spokes, maybe even body color(like Tasca did on the superboss429)

I found some pics.





I think if I got these and color matched the 5-spoke to my stripes it would be killer.

Me too! Those would be way better looking than the stock Bullitts.

Photochop? So this is $1600 worth of wheels and shipping, $1200 in tires, hand sanding, $100 worth of powder coating, and $47 to mount and balance. Figure with gas and such I'm at $3K.
Probably going to stick with stock Polished Bullitts until money falls in my lap.
