I voted for the bullitts, but I really like the riveted Cobra Rs that weren't included.

Cool sounds good!

Wow the bullitts though played out still seem to be the most popular-40%
I kinda like the saleens cause they're diffrent and look badass but I've been thinking of how they look going down the road and I don't think you can get that badass cruising look without a deep dish in the rear. What do you guys think?

IMO Bullits are so popular on our cars because they have the retro look and match the feel of the rest of the car. I like some of the new rims too but many, though creative, look better on a GT-R or 370Z. I'm going to vote for the Bullits.

Those would look awesome on a few different colors. To the OP, I didn't vote but they are all safe bets. Whatever you do go DD in the rear and it will look really nice. And FYI if you look hard enough, you can find some really good deals on any style. These were a little over $700 at the time for my 19's brand new.

I have the CT-R's which are pretty close to the FR500s.
I like that they are non-deep dish in the front unlike most bullits available.

I voted Saleen Replicas (Definitely SN95 offset, don't even think about the new offset, IMO).
But you're going to want the deep dish look sometimes! Decisions, decisions!

Damn. Now I'm really not sure.

As far as the saleens-they look great ESPECIALLY on Mikey's GT b/c his car is black with the prokit drop. Is it just me or would they not look that cool on my blue/stock height car?

Also the DD rears just look nasty cruising down the road no?
