I love CCW wheels, but in my opinion they only good in wider sizes with a lot of offset toward the outside. ive seen em on supras and stuff, they look ok, which would be like a 18x9 with a +35 and a 18X10 with a +45 it looks alright, but a friend has a set on a flared datsun Z car, 18x8 -8 and a 18x10 with a zero offset, and holy crap it looks good.but im partial to that i guess, my boyd wheels are zero offset all around, love the dish..

I think they look good regardless of what size/off set you get. They are strong, lightweight and in terms of three piece wheels are very economical.

[Todds69]

I talked to them the other day and they told me for the Classics they were $2K.....

[race-rodz]

thanks... they ended up selling on ebay for $1965.... i figured i would rather spend a lil more and get new.... unless somebody has some floating around for a viper :_paranoid

ask SW, he would know, or i would think he could see if anyone out of RSI has any... god knows he knows EVERYONE... or maybe every one just knows of him.. famous or infamous.. i dunno, ask him. Streetking.

Let me know exactly what you need, I will call John. I have several sets of his wheels including his drag set ups and road race set up. I have a set of SP500's getting done right now for my Turbo Lexus..

well... i need something like 18x13 and 18x10, prefer the classic line with the black anodized centers, just like on the white 69 above. standard viper offset i think. its for the cobra project, using all viper suspension.... once i have wheels, i can finish the chassis/suspension designs. thanks

Are you sure about the off-set?

Are you sure about the off-set?

well i have nothing for camparison, and the viper stuff has to be narrowed to fit anyway. so my way of thinking is... if i get a standard or "common" offset, then i will be able to figure the exact amount to narrow the front and rear in direct relation to where the wheel/tire need to sit.

and hopefully goin with the "common" offset will allow me to run different wheels if desired (stock wheels/drag radials)

i have mocked up 345/30/18's... and they seem to be the best fit for the gi-hugic wheelwells in terms of fitment and looking cool. right now the car is nothing more than a pile of parts and a rack full of tubing to go along with everything from the original contempary classics kit. but i am stuck with the chassis blue-prints,untill i have set in stone measurements for the wheel/tire fitment.

thanks for the help

If you do go with the Viper off sets, you can run the CCW Viper Drag set up also.. The skinnies clear the factory Brembo Brakes..

that would be great...but for now im more concerned with the inital set-up. future options are great... but at this point in time i have a long long long list of other parts i still need along with the wheels.

the cobra project is a partnership deal between me and "pops", im trying to get all the major parts rounded up so i can jump on it over the winter months. he got really motivated when when he finally got to see pics of my 34 truck...and as long as i keep on "schedule"... his car will be next in line.

i have posted in forums with sw for a few years as we are both ex-supra owners, and lemme tell you.. that list of extremely nice cars, turns into a whole new list of extremely nice cars every 3 months.. or so it seems, he had the supra, the chevelles, the trans-ams, the550 maranello, the m5.. it goes on and on ...

[race-rodz]

i think sw needs a race rod to add to that stable. :unibrow:
