Default 5 Lug Conversion Kit

I've got a set of black bullitts that came off my 01 and I was wondering if the 5 lug conversion kit that 50resto sells is really worth the money

heres the link http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...0%201&comp=LRS

Bullitt wheels will not fit on Mark VII rotors with dust caps unless the rotor bearing hub is machined.

I would do the sn95 swap, not only will they work great with those wheels (which will look awesome by the way) but they also improve the handling a bit. Don't remember exactly what it helps with the handling or steering but there is something, I remember reading it somewhere.

Do the SN95 Conversion as you will have endless wheel choices and excellent braking on top of that!
