Do these look like 17's to you?

A random question... But I'm having a hard time finding pictures of fox's with 18" bullitts....

The owner of this car says they are 18" bullitts... but to me they look like 17's.

Thanks for your time.

the front cobra brakes fill the opening behind the rim way too much for those to be an 18.

i have the same brakes behind 18s and there is more of an opening around the rotor.

hmmm looking at my pics it's hard to tell actually. there is only going to be 1/2" gap difference at each side of the rotor roughly. here is my gap pic for reference, not bullets though sorry

Wow... Thanks guys... I agree, the only possible 18 on that car is in the rear....

Hopefully I'll find that car out at a local meet sometime and check the sidewall...

I'm always impressed with how helpful this place is.

all the other pics posted are deep dish too.... the original one is standard wheels, so they could look smaller because of that
