18 x9 with a 35 offset? On a 1993 SC400.

Personally, I'm not big on machined finish. Plus, I don't really dig the black inserts on the spokes. Maybe without the inserts?

I love the machined finish, with those offsets I reckon the wheels will sit nicely if your car is lowered.

I would recomend getting a staggered set up with a wider wheel in the rear, or your going to have the front sitting close to flush and the rears sunken in a tad (which is not a good look on the SC)

I am not quite sure. The SC is my wife's car. I do not have a lot of experience w/ these type of cars. I have been around classics & trucks all my life. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I do know that she wants this thing decked out inside & out. That is her baby. My baby is the horses under the hood.

What is your budget for the rims. That could help us make some suggestions for you!

I do not want to say that there is no limit, but I believe you pay for what you get. I want aggresive, clean and streamlined. I do not want to spend a fortune, but I also realize that what I want comes with a price tag, a lot of times. There is no set dollar amount.

How about these? If I can get rid of mine, I'm thinking about these.

I happen to love CCW's. Since your first picture was of a five-spoke design, I picked their 5-spoke design as well. How about one of these?

I really like some of ADR Designs wheels. Any comments on them? I also liked Piaa wheels. I am not necessarily looking for a five spoke design, but it seems eveything that has caught my eye, has been five spoke. Do you think this is too busy?

mkorsu

I don't think it's too busy. It does approach more of a mesh style though. Like some Work VS-XX!!!!

i would steer away from ADR and some of the other lower end wheel manufacturers. I would look into Work, iForged, CCW, or Sevas. Sevas is a wheel that D2Autosports sells. It has been big in the Audi and other Euro tuning circles and just recently started making wheels with Lexus bolt patterns. I always thought that this Sevas S-Star wheel would look great on the SC's body.




Sizes on the SC for your wife... you really dont want anything that will be hard to run (read: low offset wide wheel requiring fender rolling/modification. I would recomend 19X8.5 et40 and 19X9.5 et40. The offsets are conservative enough that you wont worry about rubbing, the sizes are aggresive enough to turn heads, and the SC will look great. Another plus...is that D2 currently has the Sevas in 19's priced at $2425 including tires! (according to their website- http://www.d2autosport.com/sevas.html)
