> Why do pople insist on calling Torque Thrusts (and sometimes Cragars) “Bullitt” wheels. Fucking Ford just copied American Racing’s design. They’ve been around for decades, but Ford puts 'em on a Shitstain and now they’re “Bullitt wheels.” :squint:

Because saying “Bullitt’s” is a lot easier than saying “Hey Russ, what Make and Model are your black wheels? Cragar’s? Torq Thrusts, or Ford Knock Offs?”

Also the fact that they are black with a polished wheel, they more closely resemble a Bullitt wheel than a typical Torq Thrust wheel.

And yes, I am aware that they have been around for a lot longer than 01 with the Bullit. My dad’s 70 Coronet had “Bullitts” on it when he owned it in 81.
