  • Bullit Wheel

    Where did you get your 05 Bullit wheels from? From your post, it would seem that a 45 tire would be a better fit on a SVO. Did Ford change something on the 05 GT wheels? I like the way your car looks. Please send me pix and the name of where you ordered your wheels. Great look. I wanted 95 Cobra's but the Bullit look has won me over.

    • They are all over e-bay. Just buy the rims without tires. The 45 series looks better then the 40's IMO. Also, 235/45's don't rub even with my car lowered.

      • So really, if one wanted to, one could run any wheel that's got the proper offset and backspacing for an '05 GT.

        • The offset and backspacing work but the center caps will need some modification. I ended up using the spinner style center caps off the premium 16" wheels on the 17x8 bullitt wheels. Just had to trim the inside edge of the clips a little to fit over our hubs.

                      Will they fit? By the way, here's the sexiness:

                      • Meh. Can't even see the detail of the wheel 'cuz it's so black. Polished lip would look dead sexy though.
