There, your eyes should be straight enough to see that the picture is stretched a little from left to right.

Well, as it turns out guys, seems the supplier was understocked so I reached way down in my other pocket and decided to go with US made forged wheels instead of cast out of Taiwan.

So I bought these Boze Stixx 18X9. Alot more expensive but they are custom made to exact specification of any car. Best of all, I even found a picture of a Stang exactly like mine with these rims on. Couldn't resist.

Look it up guys and tell me what you think.

Thanks
Jean

bluestang2go if those are the rims your getting I think they look awsome. Only thing is they remind me very much of the 05 upgraded cast aluminums that come with the car. Which is ok just depends on what look your going with on your stang. If your leaning towards the modern updated look those would be my choice.

Im loving retro with a duct tail spoiler and all so I wasnt to keep 5 spoke mags . I went today to see if American Racing carries the rims I pictured but they dont make then to fit our cart.

Can anyone tell me what rims are on Dewdog's Sonic blue? Im guessing all the 18" Chrome bullits I see on the forum are the Ford accesory rims right? Can anyone remember a price? I guess Ill drop and Email to the Ford dealer we buy accessories from on this forum for a price.

Thanks for your comments runfox, I appreciate it. As for chrome Bullitts, Ford racing has 17X8's and I was told recently that they're going to make 18X9's so check it out. If that's what you want they look real good. As far as American Racing goes, they don't seem to have a lot of choices for the 05 Mustang (if you wanna keep the right offset). Be careful if you decide to go with different offset. Make sure you like the way they stick out!! Not everybody likes that.

In the end it all comes down to how much you wanna pay for wheels and if you wanna go with US made ones or whatever else on the market. I've been shopping for awhile and I was gonna go with anything that caught my eye until I saw these. It's a matter after all but the Boze wheels are custom made with your specific offset and bolt pattern and they're forged as opposed to cast. You might wanna check them out.

Good luck with your shopping.

BTW, I don't think that all the 18" chrome Bullitts you see here are from Ford. You can have nice aftermarkets and I think you can get a set of those for under $300.00 a piece. So go with your heart and most important...with your budget.

John

American Racing TT II's are custom so you can order from a wide range of backspaces. They fit my car perfectly
