I have seen OEM bullitt wheels on ebay that are listed as having come off a new GT. What confuses me is I see some that look gray and some that look silver. One looks definitely lighter than the other. I know there are several aftermarket bullitt style wheels of all types of finishes, but I just wanted to understand what finishes come on the Ford OEM bullitt wheels. Why do some look gray and some clearcoat silver?

the take-offs are grey. Ford Racing sells a silver set, black set.

Now that I see it here, it is probably just overexposed lighting.

before i mounted the tires the center caps pop out through the back and the spinners just pop right in.
if you are afraid they are going to fall out or be stolen here is another option:

If they are GT take offs they are grey, but its a pretty light shade. I think they look sweet.
