Are these 17x9 or 18x9? Trying to decide wheel size for my car.

I know...they fit the car perfect! Thats why I need the size. Haha. The car was on the Fox Body picture thread.I saved it along time ago, and my computer has dialup, so it would take me years to find it again.

Could you go with a 275 rear and a 245 front on an 18x9 and make it look right?

Yeah that car looks tough. But they never give a real good side view of it.

THANKS NOVA!!! I searched cardomain.com for like 2 hrs last night looking for that page. That helps alot!

Brian- I've thought and thought about DD wheels...but I can't decide. I'm doin the full Cervinis saleen kit, and a think flush wheels would look right, because of the flat side skirts and rear. But ur car looks DEAD Sexy! So I can't decide. My car will prolly be rolling in primer to carlisle with 18's and a saleen kit...but I dont care! Its going to be hard to get the car painted before June.

I think a Saleen kit with DDs would look just fine. I am just a huge fan of DD wheels...

Flush would look good, don't get me wrong, I just see the Bullitts or FR500s and when they don't have the DD out back to me I ask "why not".

Might be something you can photoshop?

Click to expand...

Here is an idea of what my car will look like when I'm done. (hopefully for carlisle) This is with flush wheels. I cannot decide if I want to go with DD's or not. I'd like to see what this would look like with DD's. I plan to paint it Silver with Silver Fr500's, saleen kit, and stock wing. I have that hood already. or

Beautiful lx up top, but I think with the size of the rim to the car, it looks like a 17..
