Bullett OR Rice?

You sirseem very closed minded! But whatever, good luck finding a wheel YOU like! Since you don't like the popular choices todayyou MAY have to look a little harder to fine something different! It's refered to as supply and demand! Most businesses advertize what they can move!!! Since you are looking for something different then the 'current norm' you'll have to search harder to find what you seek...... But they are out there!

Haha

Ya, I guess I am a little.

I really do like the Bullitt rims, chrome especially.

But I want something more retro, and I don't have any answers to what the offset and backspacing is on the stock 17 or 18 inch rims.

I've posted on several boards but no one has the tech details.

to me the most retro-esque rims are the 16's and the bullit replicas

Depends on the wheel and how it's made. The most common one, the 17" "Bullit", is a 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern with 45mm offset.

This place has many wheels that you can order with custom backspacing/offset.

Personally I am content with my deep dish bullitts -



SWEET! I love that look with the deep dish! Makes me think back when I was young and Muscle Cars ruled!

Nice, but too much "bling".

I want old school.
