I know this is most likely an old question that's been asked many times before, but I need to know if Bullitt rims from an 04 can or will fit my 09. I have heard that there can be spacing problems and that the tires could stick out of the fenders and/or rub. I found a set of black Bullitt rims for a very good deal that have 245/45 R17 Pirelli 210 tires on them. I still have the stock 16" basic V6 rims on my car. Would these tires be able to fit better since they are not too much larger?
Thank you

using this web site I get this info. I had to guess on the width and offset of those bullitt rims, and I'm not 100% my infor on the stock rims is right.

So you can see, the tire is much fatter, and the extra space is all on the outside so the risk of contact is going to be that outside edge. Try taping some card board to your stock wheels so the card board sticks out as far as the new ones would and in your driveway just turn them left and right and have a friend look ti see if the touch.

Also, the whole set up will be shorter and your car will be 15mm closer to the ground but have an extra 15mm from the top of the tire.

I have a 07 Pony V6 with the Premeium Package and part of my exterior Premeium Package is the 17" Bullitt Rims and Tires My Car came with, so I'd think they'd fit your 09.

ron the 94-04, although they share the same lug pattern, have a different offset. therefore i'd assume they would not fit correctly.

Thank you all so much for the information. It's too bad they won't fit my car, I really want a set of black Bullitt rims. Guess I'll just ave to save up some money!
