Bullitts on my 66 coupe??
Interested to know if stock 17x8 Bullitts from a 05-08 Stang will fit on the 66 coupe, do u need spacers and where would I get them from? Anyone have pics of what Im looking at?
Thanks....

I've seen this same question 3 times in the past week. I think everyone has said you need 1 1/4" spacers.

Would that be 1 1/4 for both front and rear and does it matter if I have stock Drum brakes?

I think it is both. Do you know the backspacing on the bullitts? That will determine the size of spacer.

i believe the 05-08 need a 1 1/2 inch spacer for the fronts. they have a lot more backspacing than the 99-04 bullits
