i was thinkin about buying some deep dish bullits for the rear of my GT, but i was thinking about going with 18s, since 17' deep dishes look kinda tubelike (not wide enough). how will this look with stock 17s in the front? has anyone done this and is it a bad idea...thanks..


btw i was probably gonna order them from www.wheelreplicas.com

Will look sweet, but don't buy from wheelreplicas, the price is probably too high. Try mustangtuning.com

well on some cars that will give you abs problems, only other thing is that the color may be off. if you are neurotic like me that will drive you nuts. other than that, i think it would look sweet if you can get it to work.

The color difference between the stock bullits and the new 18" bullits were close but you would be able to tell a difference if you put 1 of each on the car. Save up some more $$$ and go with the 18's all the way around. I went with the combo in my sig.

i say go for it, i like the staggered look. like a vette. If it works out you saved some money from only buying 2...if not you order 2 more 18's and use the stockers for winter or storage etc


just noticed your in miami...no winter for you...so sell them
