Seriously, why the animosity towards the concept style wheels? These are cool. What do you mean by them having the center cap? Are you saying this is ugly?
I guess I just have a problem with buying a brand new, completely re-designed car with carry-over wheels...

What do you think the price difference between a wheel upgrade and going out and buying your own are? As with the stereo it's probably cheaper to go out and get it yourself. But better I'm not sure.

Personaly I wish they would have made the optional V6 rim in a 17" for the GT, because it looks better on the car than the avaliable GT rims

on the topic of wheels,
I agree that the v6 wheels would have made for gorgeous 17 or 18" wheels on the GT
The bullitts are not carryover, they are smoothed out quite a bit, plus there will be a new bolt pattern supposedley
The centrecap on the concept wheel has been confirmed to be plastic, which means the chrome will flake off in time.. making them look bad IMO
No one is more disappointed about the 18's than me... but maybe they will become available soon after launch... nothing has been confirmed yet.

Does that make any sense?

On the topic of rims... will the 18" bullits' fit on the V6 mustang?...
Do you think they'll be an optional upgrade?...

oooh, happy me!
Thanks, that makes me happy.
Wonder how much a set of four would cost.

Hmmm... that kinda sucks the V6 cant get them in an upgrade package...
Errrr... gotta make some money first to buy the car... then I'll give ya a ring
What state do you live in anyway?... the shipping costs would probably be huge anyway
Edit: Curious... why get other rims? I think they look better than the V6 version myself, and the other V8

Can't we just get the car on lousy winter rims and save money for aftermarket mags! :scratch: I definately don't like what Ford has to offer with the new 'Stang..

you can't put 16" tires on a 17" wheel, but other than that...cmon man, it's the same car with a different engine (i know i'm oversimplifying...don't kill me!). And you can't tell me you haven't looked at those car magazines and seen a Focus with 18" rims?
It can be done! The only thing that would be prohibitive would be if they changed bolt patterns between the 2 cars...but why in the heck would they do that?

Larry La Prise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully at age 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him in the coffin. They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.
