Maybe it's just because the wheels look to cartoony?

I think its also because the front looks more deep dish than the back

Thanks for the 'shop. If I do end up going with these wheels, I will have a shop paint them black, and leave the lip and "spinner" polished.

What are those wheels called?

So are you thinking about the regular or the polished ones? The polished ones that were put on your car look amazing!

Posted by: Xerxeese

Those arent the polished, just a different pic from the site (i think). I like the darker centers, which is why I would have them painted black (like my bullitts). The main reason I like them, is the same reason I like the bullitts and my hood - Classic/retro styling. The big difference is I see bullitts on lots of stangs now, and these, Ive never seen. I like to be different

Excellent choice! If I could change my rims I would... about every other Mustang out their has the Bullitt rims. It's good to be different!

So when are you thinking about ordering?

Wouldnt be till spring time at the earliest. I have an engine still to make functional hehehehe

Posted by: Rick Sample

Well that sounds cool! Spring isn't to far away... can't wait to get my car out again!

Holy CRAP, Xerxeese -- have you priced those bad boys? $400+ per rim!
I don't know if I could justify spending $2000+ on rims and tires.....
(but if you do get them, I promise I'll only get a little drool on your car at the NHMC Cruise nights.....

)

Here's the pricing I found

I can get them from Sears, too... I havent priced them there yet.

Also, look at some of the other rims on thier site.. considerably more expensive than other places.

Was wondering if that was the case. I had to search a bit just to find any prices. Sears has 'em? Let us know what kind of pricing you find.

Hmmm... a set of 17x8s on the front and 18x10s on the back would look real nice on my car. I wonder if the offset is correct....

Posted by: Rick Sample

Wow those are expensive!

UPDATE Found some much better pricing here

And at the same time, I started considering another rim.....

03 Cobra Replica.... BLACK CHROME !!

I havent seen THIS on any 'stang yet.. Just not sure how it would look on mine.. Anyone want to give it a shot (BESIDES SCARECROW!) ?
