If you want wide...and 17 inch rims, go with 17x9 up front and 17x10.5 for the rear. tires.. 275/40/17 fronts 315/35/17 rears.

They finally released those wheels. I had the Saleen wheels which where made by Stern on my SVO. I might get thoses if I have traction issues and sell my Roush wheels.

Yeah I havent seen anybody with these wheels yet, except the cars on the website. I'm ready to swap out the ol' saleens which I've had on the car for about 4 years.

I had the original Saleens which came with the 87 Saleen. I loved those wheels but where not the right offset for the SN95 platform. I just hope these wheels are not the new bullitts and get played out.
