I'm looking to upgrade the wheels on my '68 fastback, and I'm leaning toward the current generation Bullitt style wheels. I know tons of people are running the old style (2001-2004), but haven't heard much about people running the later models.
I know I will need a thicker spacer than with the older wheels, but my big concern is the tire diameter. 2001 - ish Bullitts ran 245/45 R17's, approx 25.7" diam. The 2005 + ones run 235/55 R17's, approx. 27.1" diam. Should I expect any interference due to the larger diameter?
I know I can change the tires to whatever I want, but you can get the new take off tire and wheel combos at a good price.
Also need to check Dodgestangs chart, but I wanted to ask here in case someone had first hand experience.
Thanks,
Andrew
