I'm looking for a set of takeoff or good used 17x8 factory Bullet wheels.
I'm on a budget so no new ones. Located in Northern Caifornia.

Where in Northern California?

Here is a thought if you are trying to save a buck or two....

Check with the manufacturer for blemished (aka factory seconds). I
got a set of Vintage 40s direct from Vintage Wheel Works for about
50%, including the lug nuts, and if you look really close you can
find what they mean. If you're a couple of feet away and don't know to
look, you'll never see it.

Safety is not a problem. They won't take liability by selling
something that is unsafe.

I'm not cheap... I'm frugal.... : )

Local classifieds in newspapers, the Auto Trader, or The Nickel
(especially watch for divorce sales : )

Mark,
Check out www.CAFords.com or WCFords.com classified sections as most of
these guys are in the Sacramento to bay area region. These wheels are
still alittle pricey as they are in high demand but you can likely find
a set for reasonable.
I don't have anything available at the moment.

Get a line on any more late model seats? Reportedly, I'll be picking
up the car around the 25th, but have to immediately turn around and
head for Medford for a family reunion, so it looks like a special trip
down your way afterward. I'll keep you posted.
