Default 2001 Torch Red Mustang

Hey all, my Mom bought a 2001 Mustang GT April 08 and I have a question about her wheels. They are black Bullitt wheels and I was wondering if they came on her car stock. I think that it may have come stock with them because the car has no mods and only had 45000 on the odometer when she bought it. Here is a picture of it. Thoughts?

No, they are most likely aftermarket rims. A lot of folks will do wheels and wheels only, don't ask why because I don't know.

These are my stockers.

Also that's not correct lighting and spoiler for an 01 either. An 01 should have the hood and side scoops like a bullit on almost all of them and they had smoked head lights and the newer style spoiler.

Good enough for me. Can't wait until she gets tired of it because shes going to sell it to me when she does. This is the car I want to do a 4v swap in. I think an old dude or someone used to own it because it was PERFECT when she bought it. No cracks in the leather or anything.
EDIT: must be a 2000 then.

Not stock, all though I do believe some 01s came with that exterior package(spoiler, no scoops)

Yup it's a 2000. A 99 would have 35th anniv badges. Looks to be in great shape! Just the headlights not being destroyed says alot for the care taken

Sooo I'm an idiot.. It isn't a 2001 torch red, it is a 2000 LASER red LOL. Sorry my mom lives in IL and I couldnt get her on the phone. I looked it up and that color is definately laser red.

yeah looks like laser red...

are the lips on those wheels polished or are they machined? they are too dirty to tell right now.. if they are machined, they are stock bullitts painted black, if not they are aftermarket

either way, they arent the stock wheels since its a 2000

They have a machined lip on them for sure. I think these may be what she has http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts...tKeyField=5814 She has those center caps and they definitely look like an OEM wheel but I cant tell if the ones in the link are polished or not.
