I just had to order a replacement for one of my bullit deep dish wheels 17x10.5 that I bought about 4 years ago.It was damaged in an accident. I Got it from American muscle who gave me good service.

When I get the wheel I notice right off that the dished lip on my old wheels are about 1 inch deeper than the new one.

The wheel looks good but I like the look of the deeper lip better.Should I buy another wheel to match the new one or say screw it, nobody will notice?

If the damage is beyond repair, and they can repair them I would just buy
another new wheel to match. Having mismatched wheels would bug me.
And wouldnt the offset be different with a shallower dish. That might look
strange from the back......

Are they the same offset and BS?? They now make S197 wheels so i'd check to see if you got one of those by mistake
