Which rims fit?
I have Carbon Fiber Dymag rims, but I need to swap them out so I can send them to england to get fixed.
Which rims will fit my 99 SH?
I live in Hawaii so driving to pick them up isnt an option unless you live here too lol.

Are you asking from which year Superhawk will fit? All of them.
If you are asking about from different bikes, then the 900RR rear wheel will fit a Superhawk. And, IIRC, the front wheel from an F3.
I believe BR has a set for sale.

IIRC = if I recall correctly
BR = a user's name here on SHF (Superhawk Forums)
https://www.superhawkforum.com/forum...ad.php?t=12859
Looks like they sold (on eBay) already though...

Well, if the F3 wheel fits, then the CBR900RR (95-96) front wheel also fits. BUT, the 93-98 900RR's came with a 16" front wheel. You can't use the '93-94 front wheel because the speedo cable is in the way (you could machine spacers for it, however). Basically, it's best to stick with the F3 wheel. The F2 wheel may fit with the proper spacers - I had an F2 front I bought off eBay, but there weren't any spacers included. It seemed to line up fine otherwise.

ok, but thier rotors will still fit the calipers on the SH right? So I could find either an F3 or F4i front and they will both fit right? The front is the main problem, the carbon fiber weave is leaking to the point where i fill up to 40PSI and by the next morning its down to 20PSI or lower. The rear holds air good, but I need to get both swapped so I can ship the CF rims off to DYMAG in England. They said they would inspect and repair for free as long as I ship them there.

Yes the rotors' diameter will fit the calipers. It's the way the rotors bolt to the wheels that makes them different or the same as the superhawk.
Even in CF, shipping wheels from Hawaii to England has to be $$$!

Got this by researching.(This is probably not all of them, and I wouldnt be surprised if somebody says "1999 year rear wheels from a 600 wont work")
Front 3.5 x 17 Rear 5.5 x 17
First bikes that BOTH tires will fit:
Blackbird 97 - 01
CBR1000 90 - 91
CB1000 94 - 95
VFR800 98 - 01
VFR750 90 - 93
CBR600F4 99 - 01
Rear Wheel
CBR900RR 93 - 00
Front Wheel
CBR1000 93-96
RC51 00 - 01
CBR929RR ?
VFR750 94-97
F3 95 - 98
F2 95 - 98
I got these from different forums, tire sites, shops where people sell used wheels online, so just remember to ask first.

Nice list but........
it doesn't take into account rotor bolt spacing. Some of these will require their respective matching rotors as the ones from the superhawk will not bolt on. I believe but haven't verified that some of these also have different rotor diameters (929 for instance) and will not work.
