Rec'd two separate emails from Mustang Tuning / here's one:

Thanks for the heads up! We will make the change on the website to let everyone know about this.

Also discussed this w/Springfield Motorsport; they believe the Cobra rears will work w/this wheel. At any rate, will be attempting switch again on Thursday w/stock-sized rotors and my red Bullitt calipers. Pics when possible.

Man bro, the drama never ends with this one. You better keep those wheels forever after all the crap you went through. Update on me: new higher paying job in the forcast = more go fast goodies!!

Ok, appointment changed to Saturday a.m. to tackle rears again. Fronts are on; sorry for bad pic, better tomorrow.

Rainy Saturday morning in scenic Washington, DC but successful. Not the best pics in the best setting but..

Congratulations! You are one determined guy. As they say, black is back.

Given that you have a growing collection of wheels and tires, have you considered trading some of them for a set of skinnies to go on the front for 1/4 mile action? The wheels to fit over your brakes are out there...

I'm regretting selling my old wheels/tires now - I'm going to Talladega for a few laps on their road course, and I'd like to put the old 17's with some road tires on...

Think I'll go see what's on ebay.

Okay, Sunday morning in Washington, DC - pics in Old Town, Alexandria, Virginia, a 15 min. scenic drive to 1) Starbucks, and then 2) the park on the Potomac for cleaning/pics. Guys, let me know what you think. Remember, goal was to find combo that kept 17x8 on front, and enough wheel on back for my existing 315/35/17's for traction. Had to give up my Eradispeed rear brakes to do it. If starting over again (and again, and...) I would have waited until I could find the right place to have painted the silverish 17x10.5 NON-deep dish wheels black; could "have had my brake" and eaten it too. Need an Eradispeed+1 set for rear of your car? Two OEM gray 17x8 Bullitts? Full set satin Ultralite II's w/Yokohama Es100's? Pics in gallery or by request.

LANCE - do you have a couple of front shots? Trying to convince a couple of friends to get the chin spoiler. Your car rocks!

Lances03GT · 09-12-2005

Thanks.Yes here is a couple.

My 03 vert is redfire w/the grey bullits, and black top- I get more compliements on these wheels- especially from the old timers...might want to re-think going black.

-- Hey, Beach Boy fan, have had them all: Chrome Cobra R's, OEM Bullitts, my alternate set of Ultralite II's, and the current black Bullitts. Very happy w/them.

Lance, your GT is hot as shidt!! 18's look perfect on that thing. What size tires are you running front and rear?

Lances03GT · 10-09-2005

265/35/18's on the front and 285/35/18's on the rear.Thanls.

Hey, lance your car really shows how good those deeep dish bullitts can look.
Your pretty handy with a camera too "Nice angles".
I Noticed the 18 x 9 front wheels have more of a lip than the 17". I had steered away from the bullitts and decided to find a custom deep dish wheel but, after looking at those pics the bullitts are back on top for my 98.
