The 1979-04 Mustang C3-C5 Wheel Set, featuring a 17" Bullitt Style design, adds a touch of classic sophistication and modern flair to the iconic Ford Mustang. This wheel set, identified as CA-MA23070 and falling within the C3 to C5 generation range (1979-2004), is a testament to the enduring popularity of the Bullitt aesthetic in the automotive aftermarket.
The Bullitt Style wheels pay homage to the legendary 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback featured in the classic film "Bullitt," driven by Steve McQueen. Characterized by a distinctive five-spoke design, these wheels have become synonymous with a timeless and aggressive look that complements the Mustang's muscular stance.
The 17" diameter of this wheel set is in line with contemporary preferences for larger wheel sizes, offering both enhanced aesthetics and improved handling. The anthracite finish with a machined lip adds a touch of sophistication, while the 5-lug pattern ensures compatibility with a range of Mustang models produced during the specified C3-C5 generation span.
These wheels, with an 8" width, strike a balance between visual appeal and performance. The broader width not only contributes to a more aggressive stance but also allows for the fitting of wider tires, potentially enhancing traction and cornering capabilities.
The CA-MA23070 Bullitt Style Wheel Set is a popular choice among Mustang enthusiasts for its ability to seamlessly blend vintage charm with a contemporary edge. Whether aiming to restore a classic Mustang or upgrade the appearance of a later model, these wheels offer a versatile option that caters to both aesthetics and performance.
In the world of aftermarket automotive accessories, the Bullitt Style wheels have become iconic, symbolizing a fusion of heritage and innovation. The anthracite finish and machined lip of the CA-MA23070 variant further contribute to the Mustang's legacy of being not just a car, but a symbol of American muscle and style that endures across generations.
