None of those. If your getting these a temp wheel only why spend the money of them? Get on CL and start looking for a set of used wheels.

X2, you'll also probably find something with a better offset than any of those options.

Especially if you have a Saleen and have the widebody flares then all those 3 choices are gonna look hella sunk. The key that most people forget that you want your wheels to be somewhat flush. EAPs = not flush at all.

Go w/ the 6-spokers. Thats what I run on a ST, to different. And on top of that, the 6 spokes are the latest wheel for SVT's!

Damn your good. [cheers]

OP, take a look at the info in here.http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2278

To Ken's point you can see the front wheel of the Saleen has a lower offset than the rears or SVT wheel. This equals not good.

For Example my '07:

On EAPs at FocusFest '09:

You can tell how sunk these are then and why I wised up and got rid of them:

Now at H2Oi 2010 on OZ RS's (18x8 and 42 Offset if I recall correctly):

Now Flush-ish:

Now here's a shot of the '07 on my ______ ____ __ set to debut at Tunerwars in Harrisburg, PA in a few weeks:

Poking a bit (Offset is 30):

Just Kidding those aren't getting debuted yet nor are the ___'s [neener]

Also here is a perfect thread for figuring out what a good offset and good stance can do for a car: CLICK ME OH BOY CLICK ME!

Hope this helps [thumb]

Why not just buy some cheap temporary wheels and rock the saleens. If you like them that much just use them. They really aren't that crazy of a wheel that they need to be kept in storage, drive smart and clean them and they wont get damaged. Buy some shitty cheap stockers for while the saleens are refurbished.

This is what happens when you get Flush Wheels and corner hard. Keep in mind my fenders are rolled. I would have to have extreme camber.
