I was wondering if I got the aftermarket deepdishs in the same Anthracite color and put em in the back and leave the stock in the front. Will the color match? Cuase I bent the **** outta one of my rims in the last ice storm and a shop said it would cost like 100+ to fix so i might as well just get 2 deep dishes for the back. Also the stock color is Anthracite right?

 

I asked this same question a week ago and didn't get a responce. I'm dying to know the answer too.

 

The OEM bullitts come in Anthracite or silver. So since the aftermarkets are anthracite as well It will most likely be the same color or close. But you cant really find out unless you hold them both up together. Just like honda makes silver and it is similar to fords silver but they are way off when put up close. Your best bet would be to go to Americas tire Co. or any other tire/wheel store that sells them. Then you can put them right next to each other and then decide for yourself if their the same or not. I know there is a price difference with the ones on ebay, but America's tire, will match any price. Thats what I did with my wheels, so I would look into that. And yes the stock color would be anthracite or silver.

 

"The color will not be exact, we suggest replacing all 4 wheels for new so that the colors do match."
a reply I got back from part shopper. Figured I post it for other people with the same question!

 

Eh, there just trying to make money and sell all 4. Im sure they will be the same and if not, you wont be able to notice.

 

Here is a link to a thread on another forum on the same topic. It might give you some more info.

Kevin, I agree that the color may not be an EXACT match, but if you buy these rims
SWANK BULLITTS
it will be so close no one will ever know the diff. Buy these tires along with it
MEATS
and you will be the **** DADDY! Go for it, man!

 

What makes these a closer match to the stockers than the other replicas out there?

 

Those dont look like the bullitts if your looking at the oem ones at the same time. My friend bought those for his 99 and they were totally different from my stock ones, they even seemed to be almost a different shape, and they didnt match the color. The aftermarket bullitts are more of a greyish color and the oem are more of a brown color. So either go with new aftermarkets or just fix the wheel u got. It'll be cheaper to just get it fixed. Either that or you can go on ebay and just buy one wheel for dirt cheap.

 

if I got all 4 I'd prolly go with black bullits to be different seem to work or maybe 10th ani. cobras. Now that you mention is I know the stangnet classifieds always have stock bullits dirt cheap cuase people switch the rims. My plan was to get a s/c first then work backward if that makes anysense. Kinda workin on a bit of a sleeper STi's are the trend around here and I would love to just destroy them and a s/c will do that [sm=badbadbad.gif]. So maybe just get it fixed for now or pick up a stocker cuase if the colors off it's look horrible.
