Default stock bullitt rim width?

Does anyone know if the stock 17" bullitt rims are 8" wide?

Hey richie can you throw up some pics of the nitto555r from the rear and upclose? I want to see what they look like not in the form of a picture online. If you can, thanks. I have the regular 555's on a zephyr and rx-8 but want the R's for the stang.

What all comes in the "Stop the hop" package? Lol. Did it work?

sorry the GF's good for nothin son took the camera with him to his new place...but I'm sure someone else around here has the technology lol...
...I can tell you they don't overhang the rim at all or interfere with the bang-on weights; really it looks like a factory-width tire...

Oh I see, as long as they fit I end up getting them anyway.

the stop the hop package includes non-adjustable rear upper and lower control arms, lighter and stronger than factory plus polyuretane bushings (I think)...before them with my stock pirellis, dropping the clutch or letting it out quickly at anything below 4000 rpm would shake the car so bad I thought parts would fly off. After the installation, I could launch at any rpm, as low as maybe 1500-2000, and get zero wheelhop...just wheelspin (the nittos took care of that lol...)

lol, actually I needed the width to decide which box to ship them in. I am selling my old GT takeoffs, so I needed to buy the correct box size.
