I got rid of the 19" TSW wheels I had. I was fairly impressed with their quality so I am looking at their other wheels now. Just in a 17 or 18 this time. I am considering a mesh style now. What do you think of these on the coupe? 18x8s and 18x9.5s.

I have a couple other options I like too but they don't come in chrome. They will be chrome no matter what I get! Here is another chrome option or two.

are u converted to disc brake in the rear?

I really like the second wheel choice but not sure if a big brake drum would look good behind that much of an open wheel

What offset? I had them on my mark 8 in +40's and the rear looked good but the fronts looked ehh do to limited room for lips.

I think they will be about a +27. They show on the TSW site that the 18x8 has a 1.5 lip. My 19s only had a 1.25 lip from their specs. I liked the way they looked

I sell that line they would be 20 mm front 40 and 2nd set technically has .25 more lip on front

Let me ask you then, would the offsets and backspacing differ from a 94 Cobra to say an 04 Mach One? My 19s were ordered for a Mach One. I was curious if the wider rearend on the newer ones would change that. Thanks for any info. Any chance you have the back spacing specs?

Sn95 and new edge is same offset wasn't till 05 with retro body they changed to higher offset. There technically is no measurement called backspacing. Backspacing is derived using offset. Offset is how far from centerline of wheel forward or back is the mounting surface

I like the 1st ones and the 2nd ones but I would probably do the 1st ones.

So an 18x8 with 20mm offset would be 4.79 from back and 18x9.5 @ 40mm would be 6.34inch
