Went from the "regular chrome Bullitts", to the deep dished Chrome Bullitts....
Same sizes 17x10.5's and 17x9's and got some new rubber too. 315/35/17 Nitto drag radials for the backs, 255/40/17 Hankooks for the front...

It's the small details of the wheel that make them so great looking. It looked great to begin with, and looks 100 times better now. So Bob, how many more sets of wheels are you going to buy?!

Thoes are the best looking Bullits I've ever seen. Car looks great! By having a yellow gt with deep dish rims... are you trying to be more like Paul?

If I wanted to be more like Paul, I'd have to lose 125 pounds, cut my feet off at the shins, and dye my hair brown...

By having a red GT with all those mods, and only running mid 13's, are you trying to be the Anti-Paul? :rlaugh:

I don't care for the Bullitts but those deep-dished ones look great! :nice: Kind of OT: Bob, how do you like those Hankooks?

Mike, As you may or may not know, I go through alot of wheels and tires...lol...To be quite honest, I bought the first set of Hankook Ventus HRII's because of the price....nothing else. I was, and still am, impressed with their ride, quietness, and handling...In fact, this time I chose them because I liked them...not because they were cheap priced...

BTW, love your sig...Looks vaguely familiar... :rlaugh:
 
Yeah I totally stole it from you. :D I am looking for some new tires to replace my Kumho 712's. There is still plenty of tread on them I just want a tire with a nice rim protector. I was talking to a guy with an '03 Cobra with Hankooks on it and he said they hooked better than anything else he has tried. I am probably going to go with Nitto drag radials on the back and Nitto555's up front or maybe the Hankooks all the way around. I guess it just depends how much money I have. :shrug:

I agree about the traction statement. I cut a 1.90 sixty foot with them back a year ago. If you're interested, I have the "like new" 275/40/17's off the front of my car (I swapped to 255/40's)...I'll sell them very reasonably...
