Default Good deal on CCW wheels

This is a steal for you early offset guys. They are hard to find at that price and they are very light. Not affiliated with seller.

CCW Wheels

Of course I am a bit bias.

Same here, I always liked the look of some of the CCW wheels, especially the single piece forged SP550 (below), but they don't do any of their wheels in 17's.

Closest looking wheels to my favorite Fiske FM5's at half the price:

CCW still makes the 3-piece wheels like the 17" Classics 'Track' in my photo and also in 16". The ones in the ad came off of an 86 Turbo so hey would fit an early car (rolled fenders?) The lack of power on the NA would make it hard to push those 18x10's effectively and ruin the cars feel.

According to the seller, the rears will need a wide fender. He says the front will fit with the steel fenders trimmed.

Heres a picture of his car:

Is there anyway you can use the RL upload to display that pic? Photo hosting sites are blocked for me here at work.

THAT is good to know, I love the FM5s also. I am going to wait until I do the v8 swap though, my car in is present condition cannot justify new wheels.

He needs more rubber back there.
Those looking for 17's, I think I will be selling mine once I get the wide body on and the BBS wheels made up. Same ones in the avitar, 17X9.5 and 19X10

Thanks Darwin. I wondered about those offset numbers and now see those would only fit a modded body. That's some serious meat on that car. Is that anyone here selling them?

At first I thought it might be the same guy I bought mine from, he went to 18's and his 951 looked very similar.
Mine were off this car.

Would the fronts work on an 86 Turbo with coilovers? Anyone know?

I want wide tires front and rear and the CCWs look awsome

I've personally seen the wheels in question and they look fantastic and that is a good price, if only I had the cash but I'm already spending enough with my body work project.

I've been in email contact with him. He is running 7mm rear spacers and there is a very slight rub on the wheelwell when the suspension is fully compressed. Fronts also rub slightly under compression and fulll lock turning. I have seen the pics, the rubbing isn't bad.

The reason I didn't jump on them is that that is just too wide of a rim out front for anything less than dedicated track use. You have to hack up a lot of the fender to make it work.
