The first ones but what ever you get get them spaced outwards.

My rear wheels are almost flush with the outer edge of my arches and the fronts aren't far behind. I had to grind off most of the arches lip that protrudes inwards to clear the wheels on the front! But anyways because of all this the car looks a million times better and s**t load more beefier!

when is someone going to bring out a 18X12 wide revolution 5 spoke?
On the otherhand an 18X12 torq thrust II would be OK .

Nah either Halibrand or BRM wheels coupled to knock off adapors / spinners

Probably more period correct and oh so easy for the tyre change at the strip

oooh oooh, how bout some TSW Venoms? Nothing screams class like a set of those!

I had some 16 x 7 on my Ginetta and they were horrible.

I like the bottom wheels BTW
If it dont fit, force it. If it breaks, you needed a new one anyway!
