I know there's a few more days to vote, but the leading option right now is leave the stock wheels. The car does have Eibach springs and swaybars, and SR Performance shocks, at least in the rear. Not sure what the front struts are. I'm guessing it also had different wheels, and when it got wrecked the owner swapped back the stock wheels before signing it over to insurance.

The Bullitt wheels might be NLA, but the same wheel came in two other versions, and I've seen a few of the other versions on FBM or Car-Part. I'll just have to keep watching until a set nearby shows up. There's a set of 17's in silver with tires on FBM for $300, but they're in Kenosha, the other side of the state. There's a set of 18's in Waupun, but someone spray painted them black, and paying for a strip and a repaint makes them expensive.

FWIW I'm going to buy a 5th wheel and tire for our trip. If I run into an issue, I don't want to be driving on a temp spare for any amount of time. There's a few 500+ mile days in my schedule.
