You have to change the front brakes for the bullitts to fit.

you'll have to buy 3/8" spacers for the front, shoulder style lug nuts that reach into the wheel for more thread grip, pound the dust cap flat and modify the new center caps. But it can be done. I had Bullits on my car for 3 years like that w/o a problem.
