Got the wheels and tires at Discount Tire in Toledo, OH (great service by the way). Rims ar 17x9 with 45 offset. Tires are 255x50x17 Kuhmo. ride and handling is great, havent had a chance to rip into it yet.

to those looking for a set of bullit rims and tires, I will make a great deal to someone local if they want to come and get them. I will formally post the ad for sale. I have more pics but I can figure out how to resize them.

I would have gone with a different setup but what matters is that you like them.

I'll take a full side shot tomorrow, just got done washing her.

the offset is 45mm.

I debated getting 18" rims and tires, however, I would eventually like to lower it with either H&R or the Steeda kit and wanted to make the ride as smooth as possible, if I slightly lower it. I had lower profile 40 series on my 95 gt that was lowered with total Roush Suspension set up and the ride was a killer, you almost didnt want to ride in the car. that was the main reason for get the little bit larger sidewall. if you drive in detroit (SE MI or NW Ohio) you know that our roads are basically shot.

Thanks for all the compliments!!
