few questions on bullitt wheel

**nemesis** · 05-29-2008

i'm very close on getting these wheels, but i need to ask few questions. i was browsing on this site Black 2005+ Deep Dish Bullitt Wheel (18x9) and really like the 18x9. my question is the 18's only come in deep dish and i'm worry that the wheel will stick out ridicously. my car is lowered btw and i know i prob end up with fender roll. is this 18x9 deep dish be a bad choice? or maybe i should just get the 17x9 and don't have to worry about fender roll? i prob get some ARP wheel studs from intense as well. will the bullitt lug nuts fit our cars?

Just roll the rear fenders and you'll be fine. The wheel studs are a good idea but a PITA to install. See how many threads you get on a stock lug before deciding to go that route. If you do decide to get those studs you should get a couple sets of 5mm shwwl spacers so you can use standard tuner lugs or else they will bottom out on the stud before the wheel.

There are 2 write-ups in the how-to section of this forum for fender rolling.

thanks for the reply vinnie! are you using the arp studs or stock studs? this guy from murray was telling me the possible of paint cracking on the panel if you not careful when rolling that's why i'm little nervous rolling myself. where can i get this 5mm spacers?

I do run the ARP studs because the hubs on my wheels are thicker then most for some reason and I couls only get like 2 threads on the stock studs.

It will crack but it wont split. You can touch the paint up and you won't see those spots anyway.

Spacers:
5mm spacer mustang, Parts Accessories, eBay Motors items on eBay.com
