Well for my taste i would go with the sp10  since our cars are four disc brakes its would look nice especially if I were to put drilled/ slotted disc in front

That's what I was thinking especially with my drilled slotted rotor that cost me over freank 400 to have put on lol. Long story anyway thanks for the advice

The 5 spoke matches the design of the car better.  I'd save the crazy wheels for a car that has better performance.

Without a doubt, the first set. The second look to chunky and large to look good on a Capri.....Just my opinion.....

Russ I was trying to buy a set of rims on eBay but they said they wouldn't fit our cars because they were 15x7 they said I'd need spacers? Is this correct? Let me kno thanks

Hi, Thats right you need spacers I went to look at a set of rims I seen on craig's an had less than 1/4" between the rim an strut with stock off set. John [sceeter]

15x7 will fit....but it is the offset that will make the rims no fit...The offset on the rims you want are off..

they have almost the same exact rims at pepboys here.

The less spokes, the easier the maintenance.

Or you get a set of treated rims like my riken's.  I can wipe them clean with a wet rag.  :D
