    Okay guys, I need new shoes for my baby. Now, i can get the Bullits from an 02 'stang for 250$ w/ tires (that ill have to sell - dont fit). I was also thinkin about spending about 400 on saleens, but the only ones i can find are either black or polished, and im not so sure about the polish saleens on my black gt 2dr. Any other options i could consider for under 500$?


    I really dont think this goes well with black... Or maybe it does?

    black begs for chrome/polished. its the only excellent combination for black.

    and why do you think the bullits wont fit? the tires? what size are they?

    I used an online calculator when i was checking out his rims... Compared them to stock wheels w/ my current tires, the odometer would be off by 3%. Id like to keep it under 1%. If im correct hes running 245/45/17 on his. So i would need 255/45/17 if used on GP. Am i wrong here?

    Hes got 17 bullits with 24 offset if im not mistaken (off 02 GT)

    3% is nothing, that is one size off. i would just run them. 255s might be too big for that offset anyway.

    Ill see if the tires are gonna be even driveable... And I think i will go with bullits for now, and save up for the saleens. Will post pics when I get them.
