Hyroller - thanks for the lead. Since your rims are for a TT, the rears won't fit without a bit of fender work. I'd rather go with wheels that are made for my narrow body C2. Thanks, anyway!

Update on the wheels. I decided to go with Paul at Radial Tire in Silver Spring since he was closer than anyone else, could supply the MPSC's, had a fair price that included mounting and balancing, and supported the local region. I'm going with 18" FM-10's with race satin centers and polished rims.

I liked talking with Pete at Performance and thought his recommendation to bring the car in for measuring was smart. FYI, His initial price, though, was over $1,000(!) more expensive than The Racer's Group or Radial Tire. When I called him back and told him that his prices were astronomically higher than what Fikse was quoting me, he said he could match Fikse's numbers.

Thanks to everyone who helped me out with this major purchase!

Sorry my wheels would't fit Mark. I spoke to Gordon this AM and he told me that you called. You will just love your Fikse's. I have another set of FM10's on my 97 TT they look great. Lets see some pics of your new wheels.ASAP.
Regards...
