What do you guys think? I really really like them on the slightly more "retro" style 'Stangs, like the Bullitt (duh) and the Mach. But I can't quite make up my mind about how they would look on a Terminator. What do you guys think? Too retro or is it all in my head?

The bullitt wheels look better on a Mach 1 than a Cobra I think. The Cobra really doesn't have a loud style, its more subdued and menacing with all the holes in the front which makes the five spokes fit well with the rest of the car. But if you like them you should put them on, it may grow on you.

Where would you get 18x10.5 deep dish black Bullitts? Ford Racing only has 18x9 and AFS's site only lists 18x9 as well.

I saw some at the wheelreplica.com site, but they were 18x10, and didn't really look black, looked kinda dark grey powdercoated or something.

I like the black bullitts or maybe even chrome, but not to crazy about the regular ones... On your yellow cobra, black would be cool!!

Take off the spoiler and put SVT center caps in the wheels and my winter set up looks exactly like Shelby Guy's. 8" Bullitts and Dunlop snow tires. I get more compliments with the Bullitts than I do with my chromies. The 10 1/2 deep dish Bullitts look outstanding [anyone still have the link to those pics?]. I may get them sometime...

Someone that can post attachments send me a PM with their email so we can post some pics. I have black Bullitts on a yellow Cobra and some pics so you can make your own opinion.

Wiz, that's what I'm talking about. The wide Bullitts look awesome!

Hank, here're a couple of pics of your car linked from Chicago SVT.

Not a fan of them on the Terminators... just don't think the spoke design matches the body. :shrug:

Thanks! I didn't think about that.

Those pics are with 18s and stock springs. I now have better pics with the DRs, 17s, and cut springs.

Why can't I post my own stuff anyway?

Once I saw the Deep Dish Bullets in person I was sold! The fat chrome lip just grabs your eyes when you see them. I'm thinking of the 18in Chrome Deep Dish wheels from "Wheel Replica", they are the best quality I've seen.

What's the diff in price for tires (315/35/18) vs (275/40/17) Same brand & style?
