I dunno man. I just looked at the rear pic of your car, and it DOES look like the same spacing between the lip and the quarter panel.

It looks like 17's on an R1 that is not lowered to me. Too small looking for 18's. Who knows?

I don't know for sure what size wheels I'm gonna guess 18's but I do know there was no silver r1 made =)

Rotary427 is correct in stating that Shawn had a white one(a '95 PEP in fact). He also had a '94 Silver R2 as well that had only ~25k miles on it. Still, it seemed like he drove his white '95 more often.

In regards to the wheels, those are definately 18's as the stock brake rotor clearance demonstrates.

For reference, R1's never came in silver(only red/black/yellow). Silver replaced yellow as a color option for the 94-95 R2's
