I was thinking about getting 2 deep lip bullit rims on my GT.. would they look good if I had the normal sized one in the front and deep lip 10.5 rim in the back of the car..

Not if you want it to look good, the spoke colors do not match!

Yeah, the '01-'02 bullitt wheels are not as dark as the 03-04 bullitt wheels. It's pretty noticable to me as i can actually tell apart an 01-02 Mustang just by the spokes. They are lighter in color.

Also, most (not all) replica deep dish wheels have a high machine polish on the lip. The factory bullitts do not.

I have a pretty good picture saved on my computer that shows the difference. I forget who posted it.

I was just getting ready to post the same picture Mustang5L5, forgot who that was as well. Also doesn't the deep dish bullitt rims stick out a bit sort of like those go-cart type rims. Not sure on how to fix that but other than that it doesn't look bad with the wider tire in the back.

Forgot to mention, i saw an '01/'02 at the track with deep dish on the rear only.

Not only was the color difference there, but the rear stuck out even with the fender lip, but the fronts were kinda tucked in more.

I just think the matching 17x9 rims up front would look better....or run spacers.
