15s on Gen2?

Thinking about putting 15s on my 94 as a way to save some weight and open up more tire choices. Stock RWD Volvo wheels, if the offset will jive, would look kinda cool on a SHO if the car was low enough so that the fender gap wasn't huge. There are tons of them for dirt cheap. I also really like the Gen1 SHO wheels but I don't know how hard it is to find those. Anybody got pics of a Gen2 with 15s?

I thought the basketweaves were used on more than just SHOs?

15s Work fine on 1st and 2nd gen SHOs as long as you don't mind being stuck with crap ass brakes.

Ah I didn't think about the brake thing. I want to eventually do the Gen3 brake upgrade so nevermind.

my sho came with 15in hubcaps from a regular taurus (not sure why the slicers were off but I found 2 in the trunk with extremely worn tires). There is very little clearance between the calipers and the wheels. So little that when I installed new calipers and pads, the springs on the pads scraped the wheel a little bit on the right front.
