Looking for info on Bullitt wheels Already searched

I am thinking about getting a set of the replica bullitt wheels for my camaro.

I can't find much info or any photos about these on a camaro. I would like to see photos on a Hugger Orange or Red Camaro.

I see the tbyrne motorsports has 17's and 18's.

Anyone have the 18's? If so, what size tires did you go with?

What did people with these wheels get for center caps?

If you got the 17X10.5's in the back and the 17 X 9's in the front, which size tires did you go with?

I am only interested in the gray ones, not the chrome ones.

Also which offset do you need?

Finally, what did you do for lugnuts and center caps?

Thanks a bunch.

Re: Looking for info on Bullitt wheels Already searched

here are pics of mine right after i got them, sorry no pics of them on the car yet...





these are anthracite in 17x9.
if you go with those you will need tire size 275/40/17
if you go with 10.5 in the rear you will need tire size 315/35/17
as far as i know they are only available in 17's.

you get the corvette C5 center caps with them and as far as i know there are no others available, but i think they look cool so i don't wanna change them. as for lug nuts you can go with stockers and have the stud showing or you can get some chrome ones from any auto parts store.

i got mine from this seller on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CWM-1...QQcmdZViewItem

these are the exact same Verde Wheels you will find at www.tradeunion.com

check them out, i don't think you will be let down. and it's hard to beat that price. there are other sellers on ebay that may have them, but i would check these dudes first, i know they have sold them to other members on CZ28.com also.

hope that answers your questions.

Thanks for the info and the website.

Heck, they offer 18's and even 20's on the website.

I guess I have to decide between 17X9 in the front and 17X10 in the rear or 18's all around.

I read somwhere that Cragar center caps will fit. I don't know if that's true or not though.

looks like the 18's have the mustang bolt pattern.

5 x 4.50 is the ford bolt pattern.
5 x 4.75 is the camaro and firebird bolt pattern.

sorry, 17's are the only choice.

I thought that someone had 18's in our bolt pattern available.

Anyone?

Torque thrust II or possibly even Cragar.

Cragar makes them in 18" they look just like bullit wheels.

Thanks but the Cragars are Chrome and I don't think Chrome looks good on a Hugger Orange car.

Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think chrome Cragar S/S wheels look pretty good on Hugger Orange Camaros. My friend has them on his Chevrolet Legends Tour Camaro Z/28



and several of the Hugger Orange '02 ZL1 Supercars have them too.

Thanks for the pics. Those cars look good, but for me, chrome looks out of place on a Hugger Orange car.

Maybe its condtioning. I don't believe that a stock 69 Hugger Orange Camaro had Chrome wheels, neither did the General Lee.
