As far as I know there are no 4-lug Bullitt wheels. I don' think it's even possible.

Inquiring minds would like to know why it is not possible please.

If Dr. Victor Frankenstein's dad had just explained to him why the books he was reading were rubbish, instead of just telling him not to read them, he may have never gone down the path that lead to him creating the creature that ultimately ruined his life.

Hehehe I had to read the book for an English class

if you look at the wheel and try to imagine it as a four lug -1 it would look odd and 2. you would have to compromise the spokes to make room for the lugs which probably would cause issues for the integrity of the rim. (not moral integrity but structural).

Look at the bolt pattern in relation to the spokes. The basic design of the wheel would have to be altered quite a bit to accomodate 4-lugs.

Boyd Coddington did a 4 lug wheel similar to the Bullitt a while back:



But compare that to a Bullitt wheel:



I just don't think you could make it look right.

all I see is a red x. I would like to see it too. I asked this some years back too. You would have to put the lug nuts inside some of the spokes and I am not sure that it would be evenly distibuted.....

The only four lug five spoke wheels that work are SC wheels and 03 Cobra replicas.
