18" CHROME Bullitts on a CS PSI?
Hey all, I recently purchased and put on some 18" Bullitts. The guy I bought them from on ebay said they are 18" Chrome Bullitts off of a 2007 California Special so I went online to find out the PSI they should be filled to (probably 32 or 34) but I can't find any website that says the 2007 California Special came with 18" CHROME Bullitts...can anyone help me out who has a CS or knows whether or not the CS came with the chromes? I like the wheels and they are really shiny, but I want to make sure I got what I paid for.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Hmm...well I emailed him...hopefully he put other wheels on there from Ford. Looks like the M-1007-T178C Ford Racing part is the 18x8.5 Chrome Bullitt wheel, so maybe he put those on there? The model number of the wheel isn't listed anywhere on it that I can see, so I guess I just have to rely on his honesty?
EDIT: This is the eBay listing, if anyone wants to give their opinion on whether these wheels are chrome or not (and yes, I can see that it's listed as chrome lol)

Those are not the chrome ones.
They are the polished aluminum finish bullits.
Same as the ones I picture.
Polished Aluminum.
The chrome ones are like mirrors and those are not a mirror finish.
$955 is WAY TOO MUCH. Even with tires mounted on them.
I gave $400 shipped for my 18"x8.5" Polished Aluminum GT take-offs.
The only thing those rims/tires have going for them is that the TPMS
sensors are still installed, if in fact they are actually still inside. [&:]
They also look much better if they are wrapped with 255/45-18s
instead of the OEM 235/50-18s.

Well looks like it's back to the drawing board on this. My quest is to get 18" Chrome Bullitts WITH sensors included and tires for a reasonable price. So far, it seems impossible, but I guess I'll just keep checking the classifieds lol

I thought I would wait for some chrome ones to come along also.
It never happened unless I wanted to pay $315 for them new.
I settled on what someone else didnt want, the polished ones
and got them for a steal deal from the MF classifieds.
