Chucks banged his head a few times toooo many. They look great, but close the hood and the car will look better. :2tu:

John does nice work, and Chuck is just commenting on the brake dust as CCW( Purner ) has done a ton of race application rims for alot of us. Chuck do like his track work , you see.

The BBS rims are nice, but the new ones are fantastic.

Thanks all!

I am keeping the BBS rims and putting drag radials on them for more serious playing and keeping the CCW wheels for cruising....

I had the pics emailed to me from ART's shop in Austin as they are putting a G-force transmission and upgraded driveline so we can see what the TT will do on the track...

anyone want a slightly used set of Pilot Sports.. fronts are like new and backs are 50%...

Put the BBS's on the new coupe and lower it. I've done a couple PS's of this combo and it looks nice.

These are a 1 of a kind done for SW in Austin by CCW found at ccwheel.com
The regular 5 spoke on the website has thinner spokes than these.. just contact ccw to find out...

My car has the KW coilovers lowered about 2" over stock..

hope that helps... Thanks for the feedback!

Hot! I Love 5 Spoke wheels :2tu: How much did they run you?

They were close to 4.5g with the tires...
Pirelli P-Zeros 355 on the back which are a little more expensive...

Your car looks great!! If you change your mind about selling the BBS Wheels I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on a set.

Those rims are sweet!!! They should be a regular product offerring. I was looking for rims for my '98. I considered the CCW 505a's, but decided against them, because I already have the big package 505As on my C5. I wanted the 5 spoke, but heard they didn't offer them for the Viper. I ended up going with the forgelines 18" SP3Ps. Wow, I would have loved to have the 5 spoke in 18's.

Do you have pics to show??


Ok, please forgive me, as this PS ***** IMO. It was done quickly and I could not find a good enough picture of the BBS wheels. In any event, you get the idea. I really think these wheels would look great on the coupe, especially if it was lowered.

Note: The lowering is REAL (done with KW's), just the wheels are PS'd on.

Thanks...very nice. As I look closer, it looks like those are the 505As without the split in the middle of each spoke. Wow, I love the forgelines that I'm getting but I would have jumped on those CCW's in a heartbeat.

Damn, if I ever get another set of rims, I think these are it. They are like the HRE's I was debating, instead I got my CCW 505A's.
