    18x9/18x10 Torque Thrust M wheels are on the BULLITT

    Well, after seeing the wheels yesterday and thinking that they would not look good on the car due to the front lip being as wide as the rear we were pleasantly surprised with the end result. My mom opted for the new American Racing Torque Thrust M in 18X9/18X10 wheels due to the current back order issues with the replica wheels for her bullitt. For tires she went with 295's out back and 265's up front based on the recommendations I found on the bullitt websites. I'm glad we didn't go any narrower on the front, but at the same time it would have looked better with a little more sidewall. The tires are BFG g-Force T/A KDW-2's. We got the wheels from Tim at http://www.tireshopinc.com Forgive the crappy pics, it was raining and I only had a few minutes to grab them.

    Although this look is definitely different than I am used to, I actually really like it and I think it fits the look and styling of the bullitt very well. It makes it looks like a low, mean, and wide road race car.

    I was trying to get her to get a Mach 1 chin spoiler and grill delete, but she can't decide if its something she wants to do or not. I think both would look great on her car, especially the grill delete.

    Did the bullitt center caps fit in the ARE wheels?

    Looks good.
