Assuming that supernovae type Ia (SNe Ia) are standard candles one could use them to test cosmological theories. The Hubble Space Telescope team analyzed 186 SNe Ia (Riess et al. (2004)) to test the standard cosmological model (SC) and evaluate its parameters. We use the same sample to determine parameters of Conformal Cosmological models (CC). We concluded, that really the test is extremely useful and allows to evaluate parameters of the model. From a formal statistical point of view the best fit of the CC model is almost the same quality approximation as the best fit of SC model with $\Omega_\Lambda=0.72, \Omega_m=0.28$. As it was noted earlier, for CC models, a rigid matter component could substitute the $\Lambda$-term (or quintessence) existing in the SC model.
