Anthracite Wheel

The anthracite wheels are not the same color as the 40th anniversary wheels are they? I tried to compare them and they look pretty close but i cant tell if there is a difference in color.

They might be a shade or two off, but nothing that should be so far off that people will go, WOW! That rim is WAY off!

YES it would.

Ive seen my 40th rims next to some anthracite and they are way different.

You COULD always take your stock fronts and some DD's and go to a bodyshop and get the rims all painted the same color....

Your 40ths have a goldish tint to them don't they? Bullitt wheels are cheap so I'd just buy 4 rather than getting your scarce goldish ones painted.

Yah, they are painted Arizona Beige to match the 40th ann stripes.
Not so much a gold color though, here is a pic with my stock 40th ann rims. Ive seen the ford pics that make the wheels look gold, but they really dont look like that in person. Not sure why

I think the anthracite wheels would better match the normal stock bullet rims a lot better than the 40th ann rims.
