It's painted silver with machined lip and then clear-coted, just about the same as the Pony wheels I have.

Me again. I just found and finally confirmed with a tech rep that Discount Tire Direct have a Bullit replica wheel in a Chevy bolt pattern. They are 5.5 BS and sell for $159.

Guess what's going under my Xmas tree this year http://www.camaros.net/forum/biggrin.gif

You better make sure b/c Superior doesn't make a Chevy pattered Bullitt wheel, at least, the last time I checked..

Plus check what I posted out before you order them.. Anyway, GREAT if you get whatever you get. pdq67

the wheels on the discount site are made by a company called "Replica". they make nothing but replica wheels- hence the name. they have different offsets listed, as well as bolt patterns. too bad everything is listed in millimeters for offset and what not.

Here is some excerpts from my email responses when a questioned the chevy bolt pattern....

(first email)
Greetings from Discount Tire Direct.

Thank you for your inquiry.

These wheels are available in that bolt-pattern. The backspacing
is very close to the stock Ford wheels, but it is 1/2 inch different.
These are not available in custom backspaces.

(second email)
The backspacing on this wheel is closer to 5.50 inches.

I will have to get a voice on the phone when it comes time to order of course. I'm hoping that with a small spacer, these wheels should fit and look awesome!! Have you got any pictures of your wheels yet??
