ok, i have been doing some thinking. i was dead set on getting the chrome fr500 18x9 18x10 combo but after much deliberation i'm wondering if the 18x9 18x10 chrome bullits wouldn't look better on my car (i think the fr500 might be too angular) the bullits are more rounded which matches our cars better. what do you think? The main reason i was leaning towards the fr500's was because they are much less common but i don't want to be different just to be different and sacrifice the look of the car.

Bullits. I think that the FR500s aren't as common because they aren't as good looking. Throw some C springs and some bullits on your car, stand back and smile.

IMO the FR500 wheel's an oversized focus wheel. If you do fr500's do em in deep dish. But of the tro I think the bullitts would look better for your car.

Your car looks sharp. I haven't seen many Yellow SN95's. I would definatly go with the Bullits in a dark grey. They would set your color off very nicely. Don't get the black ones. Definatly grey.

i'm kinda partial to the fr500's. i love the bullits also, but you see them EVERYWHERE. they would be perfect if i could get them in the deep dish, but i couldn't find them anywhere.

My thought exactly that's why I want pro-stars while they are seen they are not being used as much as bullits and cobra's.

I really like the bullitt's, but they are starting to get overused like the Cobra's. I do like the FR500's too but I would only consider them if they are dished.

FR500's

Bullits are like Belly buttons...

not that I should talk, as a proud owner of my 03 Cobra's.

If you wanna be different, go with FR500's, deep dished or not, they're hot!
