[syP]

i got 2 bullitt rims off a 2006 gt with only 3000 miles on it.. for FREE

looking to put them on my Grand Prix... to order some fat tires, i need to know how big they are?

i dont have a ruler here right now, are they 8" or 9" width?

You're going to put Ford wheels on your Grand Am?


Is the spacing even the same?

glad you can read


grand PRIX

and yes i am going to put them on my car..

i got them for free.... they have similar bolt pattern... and i can run 275mm tires on it... and i get wholesale on ALL tires..



seems like a plan to me.

Hmm, I find cross matching brands on rims odd. But if it's your thing, then go for it. I actually think it will look damn good.

oh i already know it will look good.. a handful of us over at www.clubgp.com are using them... they look great.... only 1 other than me will be running 275's thought

Just an FYI, they probably won't fit due to the difference in bolt spacing.

Probably 8 inches. The tires on the new GT's are only 235's. Can't believe Ford put a narrower tire on the new mustangs than the old ones. And the car is like twice as big and has more power. Could have at least gone 18x9 with a 265 tire or something to that effect.

I was shocked to see this as well. My neighbor just picked up an '07 GT, with the "Fang" package that a local company puts together. The car doesn't look too bad, but for $36k, and all you get is a hood, a spoiler, a chin spoiler, embroidered headrests, floor mats and some emblems??? Then they don't even put on some bigger wheels? Sorry for the rant, what was I talking about? Oh yeah! 235's on the back!?!? 245's wouldn't keep that back end in place!

I am 100% positive they will fit.


Here is proof:

a few others in my club have the 05+ as well
