Help finding Wheels
 
I have started my search of wheels that will clear Brembos. You cant go wrong with a set of True Forged wheels or CCWs but unless I can get a set used at a resonable price the choices are few. I have seen GT4,FR500,2000 Cobra Rs all fit. Out of those IMO the Cobra Rs look best on an SN95. Only issue is the rim width which is 9".

Anyone see anything for sale on other boards or another set of wheels not mentioned?

What is your issue with the 2000 Cobra R rims? 9" too big/ small? IIRC those rims come in both 17x9 and 17x10.5" possibly DD as well.

The 95 Cobra rims look damn nice on those cars too, should clear the brakes and come in various withs as well as DD.

If CCW's and TF's are more than you want to spend then these would be my choice for the SN95.

Go with CCW's or True Forged. Just wait for the right deal to come up. You have a nasty setup going, you can't cheap out on wheels. They make the car.

17" 2000 R wheels will not clear brakes. Largest size R I have seen is 9" if there was a 10 or 10.5 I would get it.

I have seen several for sale but was too late for the party. Keep your eyes peeled if you see any let me know.

Fair enough. I'll keep my eyes open for any TF or CCW deals.

Car looks pretty good with the wheels you have on it. Have you considered getting wheel spacers to increase the backspacing so the brakes clear?

If you had a choice would you get 19x9 19x10 or 18x9 18 x 10.5. Difference would be the rear tire size which in the 19s widest would be a 295. Someone is selling CCWS but 19s.

19s might be too big. Im not sure however. I know someone with 20's on their 95 and it looks ridiculous. It doesnt look too bad in that picture. Your car might be able to pull it off Venom. Have them photoshopped onto a picture of your car.
