mustang bullet wheels

[240SXedUp]

Friend of mine with a new mustang is selling his stock 17x9" bullet wheels. He said he will give wheels and tires to me for $500! Thats really cheap. Will they fit I know people say 17x9 is too much for the front but a couple of people like Aries said itll fit ok. Im gonna buy them regardless because you wont find this package anywhere near $500. So if the dont fit ill sell them for a couple hundred dollar profit. just wondering if theyll fit. theyd be awesome if they didnt have the cobra emblem

If it's a real SVT Bullitt Ford wheel it's only a 17X8 and the center bore is 70mm. They don't make a 9".

A company called O.E. Concepts has been making replica wheels for some time now. I've seen several different center caps installed in these wheels. If I recall, the traditional mustang logo is found on factory Ford Bullitt wheels. Other caps include the coiled snake logo and the snake head logo. I was not aware that Ford offered any center cap other than the traditional mustang logo for the Bullitt wheel.

Dealers have put on chrome replica wheels, and aftermarket companies have made replicas in 17x9, with different center caps.

Is the cobra emblem wheel available "factory" on the Bullitt car?

[Grant@tirerack]

Those are supplied to us with the traditional pony logo only from SVT. They are cracking down big time on the knock-off wheels. Ford will not provide the caps to us loose. You have to provide proof of purchase to us before we cab get replacement caps on these wheels. All of those designs are protected and I'm not sure how the companies are getting away with that.

Ah, that's good to hear...since all the sudden, every guy has "original chrome cobra, svt, bullitt", etc.

Good info, thanks Grant

I wouldn't put bullit rims on an s14 se. They would fit, but wouldn't look right. They are too muscle car looking for an import

you forgot those wheels are heavy for an "alloy"-chet

Ya. Im probably gonna buy them, make a profit and get the 96-97 STOCK mustang cobra rims. Cnichols said hed sell me his when he upgrades, but said that might be a while.
