I may get another notch here soon. What needs to be done to run an 18 X 9 and 18 X 10 FR500? I know the 94-95 spindles for sure. What about lowering springs too?

This is the car that "droptop" Darryl from the motorcycle scene used to claim was his car...
1994 Yamaha YZF-750R / 1993 Honda CBR900RR / 1991 Kawasaki ZX-7 / 1992 Kawasaki ZX-7R / 1993 Kawasaki ZX-7 / 1989 Suzuki GSXR-750
I still like the 18" Saleens and the what I believe are deep dish bullits or Boyd Coddington rims.
ponies are a timeless look....
or pro-stars work too.....
Front: 18X9 24mm offset. 94-95 spindles. 99-04 V6/GT PBR brakes or 94-04 Cobra front brakes...your choice.
Rear: If you use stock length fox 5 lug axles go with 18X10 +22mm offset with NRC (North Race Car) brackets and run disc brakes from any V6/GT or Cobra. Using 94-95 specific brake hoses is best since the lines run along the axle housing just like a fox. Cobra rear brakes have larger rotors so you will need the right axle end for the 8.8 housing which the caliper bracket bolts up to.
If you use 94-98 axle shafts or the entire 94-98 axle assy....go with 18X10 +45mm offset wheels. Again, your choice on brakes.
Either rear axle route you choose to go, the wheels/tires will be close to the outside edge of your car, so consider fender rolling if your car is gonna be slammed.

To attempt the destruction of our passions is the height of folly. What a noble aim is that of the zealot who tortures himself like a madman in order to desire nothing, love nothing, feel nothing, and who, if he succeeded, would end up a complete monster!
