Check Craigslist. People always have their stock Bullitts for sale around here, so you shouldn't have any problem finding a full set. They usually sell for 300 with good tires, so they aren't even very expensive.
I found a set on ebay back east with a good set of tires. currently they are 305+150 delivery. I can probably sell my S197 bullitt wheels for $300 with worn tires . . . . . . I will probably be patcient and wait for a local set to become available.
You can't get DD 17s for the front though. 18s all the way around!
stock
sorry guys . . . . .but I am going to go 17 X 8 on all four corners . . . .. Grey Bullitts from American Muscle . . . . . . . I really want that stock Bullitt look! Thoughs S197 wheels did make the back end track look skinny! I always wondered why???? . . . .. . hopefully the SN95 wheels will give it the proper wider track look in back . . .. and FINALLY get rid of that clunk sound in the front . . . .. pictures to follow! Also going to try these Sumitomo HTZ tires . . .. . I had to economize because of the new wheels!

Not sure if you have already purchase rims, but there is a black Ford factory set for sale on mach1registry.com for $300.00.

Finished
OK, I finally got my proper SN95 wheels . . . . . . . recall the previous owner left me with S197 Bullitt Wheels/tires . . .. . . this caused (1) front wheel rubbing noise when turning (2) A strange look (rear wheels WAY inboard) . . .. . this is all caused by the 0.5 inch backspace difference between the S197 and SN95 wheels . . . . . I think the car looks great now with the new 17X8 SN95 Bullitt wheels I just bought from americanmuscle.com with Sumitomo tires. And I was also able to sell my S197 Bullitts on Craigslist!
Nice!!
