Weld RT-S or CCW LM20???? Ok fellas I need some help here. Ive come along way on my 98 TA this summer its currently under going cam swap, a new stall, and heading out on a 3 hr trip to get dyno tuned at SRE in wichita here in a couple weeks.
Now this is where your help comes in. Ive been relentlessly sreaching for wheel options Im wanting to run a 17X9 in the front and 17X11 in the rear. the options for the 17x11 seem to be pretty limited. Im kinda bouncing back and forth between the 2 wheels listed in the title. But am I over looking anyother good wheel options?? Anyway thanks for any opinions or advice you guys may have Im open to new ideas

As far as going to KC for tune everyone I talked to either had a bad rap on the street or were total dicks when I talked to them and SRE is 200 bucks less than all my other quotes here in KC

Fikse is not a common f body wheel neither is ccw. The only time I see either wheel in person is at large f body meets/car shows. Matter of fact I have never seen ccw's in person.

Ya if anything Fikse are much rarer than CCWs just not LM20s. I havent seen many if anyone with 17s or 18s Welds either. For me Im probably ordering 505a like Bob suggested but I have tossed around the idea of classics and LM20s. True Forged wheels look good but a few of their wheels look very close to CCWs but not nearly as good, so Im up in the air with them. I was close to buying a set but for a couple extra hundred I think CCW is the better looking wheel that knows F-bodys.

Well after all the searching and going back and forth between wheels I kept landing on the LM20 so yesterday I pulled the trigger and put in the order and they should be here in 3-4 weeks wrapped in new 275 and 315 rubber
. I just ordered yesterday and Im already tiredof waiting hopefully there wont be any delays in the process
Thanks to everyone for their input

Far from it I sold my K5 and a 98 mustang GT to fund my TA project this summer. So every cent from them has gone into the bird. That price also includes anodizing and powder coating cost too centers will be shotpend anodixed black and the lips powder coated gloss black
Ill get pics up in 3-4 weeks
