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.

If he's going that big, get 18's in the back and 17's up front for that badass muscle car look

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!

What's the number of your Bullitt and how long have you had it?

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!

much better looking! If you need a set of OEM Ford centercaps, let me know. I have a set for sale that were intended for my new wheels but don't fit.
