Default Wheels with spinners like in the brochure?

Ok, I have seen lots of aftermarket wheels for the 2005 GT but none like the Genuine Ford Accessories on page 24 of the Mustang brochure which shows "Speeding Bullit" 17 inch polished wheels with "chrome spinner-style center cap (with the pony logo). I really wanted those as a first choice but the dealer had none and didn't know when they'd get any in. I've seen several places so far that offer a similar rim but none with the tri-spoke knockoff. Any links to dealers with those in stock? Or should I just do what my second choice is and paint the 5 spokes body color?
I want to stick with 17" wheels as I like the quicker accelleration they offer. But maybe when I wear out these tires I could be tempted to get 18"...

You mean like these spinners?

Check around on ebay, there are always several sets for sale on there. As for the chrome bullits, keep an eye on this seller http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43958 Right now all he has for sale are 18s, but he also carries 17s.

Only thing is, if you buy wheels from this seller, the factory pony spinners will need a slight mod to fit.

I bought these Ford Polished Aluminum Wheels from BobUtterford.com. They come with the Pony Spinner Center Caps and lugs. They are 17x8 with the correct 45MM offset. Cost $865 shipped to my door. Part# 5R3Z-1007-EA.

Retro, those look awesome!
I think I'm gonna paint my spokes body color and wait until I need new tires, then buy 18" like those polished ones!
