Ok so im gonna order som new rims. I have the stock charcoal Bullitt rims right now and I love em. So as I see it I have 1 on 3 options:

1. Keep the stock charcoal bullitts in the front and get a set of deep dish bullitts for the rear also in charcoal.

2. Order a complete set of the black bullitt rims with the chrome lip (which are sexy rims).

3. Black bullitts with the deep dish in the rear.

Just looking to get some opinions. Either way I go I think im gonna keep all 4 at the stock size of 17. Also does anyone know the exact size of the stock bullits that come on a 2002 GT? I know they are 17 but I dont know if they are like 17x8, 17x10, etc, etc. :SNSign:

stock size is 17x8, i just bought the 17x9,17x10.5 deep dish chrome bullitts for my car. sold my stock bullitts for $500. its all in what u want, if u like the charcoal look go with just rears. if u want black, sell ur stockers and buy the black deep dish set.

Option 1 for sure.

Anthracite (grey) Bullitts are a very nice color, and DD Bullitts have a huge lip on them and look insane... I have them on my GT and there are only a select few setups id trade them for.

Just remember that if you go DD in back, the aftermarket charcoal coloured Bullitts WILL NOT match your front Bullitt rims colour! Just a heads up so you don't order them and be upset!

THANK YOU! haha trust me when I first examining the possiblities that was an issue that came up in my mind but I wasn't 100% sure. So I was comparing the photos of the aftermarket color to my stock rims. It was hard to tell since my rims are a little dirty and the ones in the pics are brand new.

But I was leaning more towards the black with the chrome lip (deep dish int he rear) because my car is mineral gray so the stock bullitts blend with the rest of the the too much in my opinion. I saw pics of the black ones on a few other mineral gray stangs and they really make the car stand out and give it a more agressive look. Plus if I recall correctly the rims that Steve McQueen had in Bullitt were black with the chrome lip.

Thanks for all the imput guys!

They match the stock '03 and '04 Bullitt rims very closely.I know,i did it.The only thing is that the stock lips aren't as highly polished like the DD aftermarket's.But to solve that issue,just get the lips polished up on the stockers to match the DD's!

Not the 01' - '02 Bullitts but it will match very closely to the '03 - '04 Bullitts.

My front Bullitts came off an 03 GT, and the rears are Anthracite deep dish and the match is DEAD on.

As stated, older Bullitts are lighter in color and wont match.
