I've always had a soft spot for the chrome DD Bullitts

I like the first two choices. Can't go wrong with either one of them. The last one reminds me one of those stock wheels on IS250/350 cars for some reason.

I like the style that's on the GT now but, I have always had chrome. But, these are starting to grow on me. I starting to think the polished are a bit more elegant then the chrome.

I like the stock polished bullitts. +1 for them being more "elegant" than chrome. Someone needs to make replicas of them that are 10+" wide with a nice lip for the rear. I vote to get the rears widened and stick with stock since your ride is already a sleeper.

I would definitely buy set for the rear if they made them in 10 inch wide.

Otherwise I like wheel #1 from the pics.
As someone who did exactly this, I completely agree, it gets way more looks and looks way better IMO

I dig the chrome Bullits, 18" or 20". I have a Vista Blue as well and my opinion is black out is not as hot with this color. I like the chrome and white combo on blue. When I need to replace my stock tires, I will be upgrading to the Bullits you have pictured in 18's. Of course an opinion is like...................... Chrome and clear turn signals, wheels and grille are my preference, but others like black out all the way around.
