Whats the difference between...

[SharkBait]

Anthricite and Grey Bullit rims. I am looking to replace the rear rims with some deep dish ones and I want to make sure they are going to match the front color.
The ones I have now are the stock bullits. Thanks

I bought the ones that Discount Tire sells. "Replica" brand. You have to be in perfect light and really stare at the wheels to see a very slight difference in shade. I think it's the one they call Silver.

its a slight difference in shade you'll only notice if you hold both rims close or pay close attention to them when on the car

Yeah. Mine don't match perfectly either.

All I know is the '01-'02 wheels are lighter than the '03-'04.

Alright thanks guys, so I guess the Anthricite is just a different color all together Appreciate the input.

When I ordered mine from Discount Tire, they said I am not obligated to buy them when they show up. I had the option to look at them first. If you're in DFW, there's someone in north Fort Worth that will hook you up.

I live in Austin but travelling to DFW wouldn't be out of the question. Thanks for your help guys, I'll contact you in the near future propellerhead

I think that the Anthricite ones are to match the "Mineral Grey" as in the 02 models like mine.

I was in a accident last year and had to repalce 2 rims. Don't know where the body shop got them but they match damn close, good enough for me.

Sorry can't say how the silver would match.

I'm sure there's someone on austinareastangs that has a hook up at Discount Tire. If not, they will meet internet prices too so you don't really have to pay their list prices.

The "real" Bullitt rims are lighter than anthracite and darker than silver.

When ford made the Bullitts available to all GT's, they used the anthracite colour.
