I got the 9"/10.5" Bullitts sitting in the basement, from the same vendor. Good to deal with.

Only $30 more. It'd be well worth it.

Wade, personally I don't think that wheel looks right in a 17" size. The thick spokes and rivet ring need the extra inch of diameter IMO to look right, otherwise it looks "squished" in the center of the wheel. I too would opt for the 10.5" out back too if you are set on getting the 17" ones.

Rich, those look bad ass! Man are they going to look good on your car. I've never seen those before either.

They'd look good if the spokes didn't have such a inward curve to them.

What range of tire sizes would fit on the 10.5? OE Wheels sells 9"/10.5" kits with 275's in the back, but they look much too narrow and wouldn't protect the lip of the wheel if I happen to hit a curb.

Paul- I know the wheel looks more like a 16 rather than 17, but at 400 a set, I can live with it.


I wonder... if enough people would want to buy them, would give us a small discount?

If you're looking for wheels, there's still some rebels at firestone here, I think they'd look ridiculously hot on your car



On topic, I do like those wheels alot, but I agree on 10.5's for the rears

Urban96 they are polished. I didnt want to deal with the hassles that go along with the chrome wheels. Plus I know that the aftermarket chrome wheels tend to flake and stuff.

Paul the cars under the knife right now getting some special treatment, hopefully in a few more weeks she will be finished, and I can get these wheels mounted and on. Spring is coming quick and I hope Im all finished with this project bye then. BTW hows your little project going?
