i really didn't care for my fanblades when i got my car; i really wanted the bullits. however, the more i look at my car, the more i love the wheels.

just seeing it tonight in the light made it look sweet.

looks like alot of happy people on here. no matter what rims they have. which ever rims make you happy. thats what its all about. nothing like getting up in the morning and getting your car out to go for a ride and not liking the rims you have. im glad that there is bullitts and fanblades. givespeople a choice. enjoy your car. happy driving everyone.

I did not want them, however when my car arrived at the dealer they were on it, I questioned the salesman saying, "Hey Man! Those aren't the wheels I wanted!!" You should have seen his face, I think he thought I was going to kill him, since we had quite a go around with my deal and what not. But in the end, I actually like them a lil better then the bullits, they are new looking yet they still retain a bit of retro feel. I also love the way they curve out to bead of the tire. Also they look better than bullits when they are spinning down the road. Glance in a big glass window in town as you drive by, any wheel can look good sittin still, but when she's spinnin, that's were it's at. =)

I'm thinking of painting the inner blade portion of mine black, just the inners, I'll do it with vinyl first to see if I like it. When I find a vinyl shop that will make them I'll take pics and see what you guys think.

Oh Yeah Age 31 I like the blades a tinge better than the Bullits.

I have the fans and I think they look good with my satin silver 'stang. I like the DD bullitts too, and I may switch when it's time to get new rubber. IMO the base color, stripes or no stripes, additional body mods, etc. all affect the look.

In this case, with the fans, my baby looks fast just stittin' still and that makes me

19 years old, I loved the fanblades when i got my 06 they had just came out with that option and it was the showroom model so I had to have it. Now that I've had it for a good while I still love them but I would much rather have a staggered 5 spoke wheel setup (foose nitro for exam.) these fanblades like you guys call them look too much for a FWD Car to me but everytime I look at them I STILL LOVE THEM.
