Are you looking for the Bullit style wheels?

Head over to American Muscle and look in the '99~'04 wheels section and will find LOTS of choices.

OK.... those would be 17"x8"

I would not suggest the OP have them widened to 10"~10.5" as you would need nearly a 1.5" spacer to run them.

I have sent 3 pair to Weldcraft Wheels and would not use ANYONE else to do this work.

You are looking at $225 per wheels plus shipping to/from. You will also ONLY gain width on the back-space of the wheels, so why you would need a spacer to get a 10"~10.5" wheel to run out back. You can run up to a 7" back-space on an SN-95, but will need a bit of massaging on back of fender walls. That means, you can get to about 9" and NOT need a spacer. Anything wider, will VERY likely need spacers and do not recommend anything wider than 1/2". I run spacers this wide, but have replaced my lug-bolts with longer stronger ones as I would NEVER use the "adapter" type spacers with their own set of bolts.
