do these exist? wheels question
let me start by saying i like my stock polished aluminum bullitt wheels
they belong on my Layla (looks wise)
but of course, i have been pondering wider tires for traction purposes, which normally mean wider rims if i am not mistaken
so
do they make any polished aluminum (NOT CHROME) bullitts that are wider than stock, and perhaps deep dish?
because i can not find such a thing anywhere

What tires do you have on there now?
If you want more traction, you don't literally have to have a wider wheel.

You could always have a hoop welded in or something.

I believe not b/c although I haven't searched for chrome I too have been looking for a wider rim that is the same design as stock and they don't have them. The closest I have seen is the AM rims though the design is not exactly like Fords

I thought the stockers were 17"??
AFS makes 17x9 and 18x10.5
COYSWHEEL makes a killer 18x9.5 (C5 serie) deep dish.
I'm surprised Am Racing doesn't have what you want...
