Thanks for the help in advance ,but i have been trying to find somone who has ordered the18 bullet replicas on ebay to see if they fit well,i am prety sure that the clearance on the inside is fine but i do not want them to stick out past the fenders ,if my calculations are correct they will stick out appr. 1 1/8 "from the stock 17's witch i think will be fine but i would like some first hand opinions,i thought there was someone on here that bought some but could not find the post ,i have heard of someone using 1"spacers so if they think those looked good then these should be fine !i should have my stripes,hood pins and sequencial lights on this week and think this also would be the perfect time for the wheels ,thank you!!

p.s. sorry for being so long winded i am still new to these forums

 

any one?

 

would anyone be able too give me any advise on this i am going to try to make the purchase tomorrow and would love to be educated ,and by the way how about some help editing my signature!!i hate being left out!!

 

well i went ahead and ordered them anyway hope they look good i will try to put a pic on here so all of you can tell me what you think, i should recieve them sat. 3/26/05 !!


ps if they work i will have 4 premium alluminum wheels for sale at a resonable price

 

I dont know anything about fit and spacers, etc.but I have to tell you that those are the EXACT wheels i want for mine.
If I know I could get those and use the Perellis I have now and put them on the car I would do it in a heartbeat!!!

Let me know how they turn out.

PS: How much for those? Those are truely sweeeeeeeeet

 

those are 18" with tires and i gave $1039 shipped i have seen just the wheels in 17"crome,polished ,black or grey all on there .i believe the wheels without tires are $329 pluss $120 for shipping ,once i get them on i will post some pics for more opinions

 

I'll be looking forward to pics!

 

Very Nice!!!

 

I believe HOTLAP has that set on his car.he said they fit good!

 

i would love to see some pics from hotlap too ease my mind !if for nothing else just too see another beutiful pic of the 05!!!

i just seen the pics and they look great they are not the exact same but they are the same size 18"x9" with 24 mm offset mine will be 25mm offset so now i am really excited

 

I'm a new guy here, but I am also interested in the Bullitt rims. I think they look crazy nice and I also have seen them on Ebay. My brother (who has a 97 stang and is a memeber here, I believe as Nuts4Ford) told me that because I only have a V6 the chrome rims would make the car feel different because they are heavier. I would just like to know if thats what yall think. I really Like the chrome, but if its gonna change my car or make it handle differently or somehting, I'll just get me the grey Bullitts. Thanks to anyone who responds in advance.

 

Man those rims are sweeeeeeeeet

 

Based on the offsets I've found, I calculated this:

18x9 Bullitt wheels will stick out 1 and 1/4" further than the stock 17"

If you choose to do the 18x10 on the rear, those will stock out 1.9" further than the stock 17" wheels.

This is to the edge of the actual rim. Obviously the tire size put on the rim will affect the total change from stock.

It should look good. I kind of wish I bought a White GT and put 18" Anthracite Bullitt's on it now. :bang:

Oh well, there was nothing I could since Ford waited so long to release pricing.

 

Is that a pic of the exact wheels & tires you bought? If so, not only do they look like the wheels are for a pre-05, but the tires appear to be pre-05 also. I'm just basing that on how little sidewall there is. If that's the case, the diameter of the tire is a LOT smaller than the '05's and your speedo will be off. To keep it the same the tires would need to be 255/45/18's.

 

you are probably correct about everything but if they look good once they are on then i would have no problem buying a tuner tochange the speedo!

 

I've said it before and I will say it again.
I love the bullit wheels!

 

got the wheels and tires on today and also insalled the hood pins and the stripes, i will post pics later today too get some opinions ,i think it looks great !!

 

can't wait to see what they look like on the car. I was looking at exactly the same ones on ebay to put on my convertible.

 

sorry it took so long but here they are!

 

i dont know how to post more than one pic at a time !
