Yes, the show car had deep-dish rear wheels. Wheel Replicas was supposed to have a set of deep-dish FR500s but they never materialized as far as I know. All last summer, they were "a month away" so I went with something else. FR500 wheels are sweet, though.

I think it looks like crap. I do like how there's no side scoop though. Like something even lower-profile than a Bullitt side scoop was molded in.

And for the FR500, they pushed the front axle up a few inches.

The hood will not fit on our cars. The FR500 was stretched about 6". The fenders, hood, etc. were custom made to fit it.

It was to get better weight distribrution and improve the handling. Look at the area between the front wheels and the front of the doors.

I personally think the front bumper is the worst part of it. The lack of fake scoops, flat side skirts and an over all feel of function over form has great appeal to me. The thing I dislike the most is that it has 18's. Deep dish is nice and all but, I'd much rather have 17'' wheels.

don't care for it, but the rims are nice, and yeah they look deep dish. Not real deep though.
