Anyone know how much a set of 16x10 & 16x8 for a late offset car would cost?

Call them tomorrow and find out!

Not sure on your size, email them. They are very good at getting back with you right away during normal business hours. I assume you are talking about the 311's? I inquired about them in 17" a few weeks ago. A set of 8x17" and 9x17" 311 wheels, fully polished, is $3,000.00, plus shipping

I called awhile back and they told me that the wheels would not work with the late model (turbo/968) brakes. Something to do with the machining? good luck

Fuchs-type wheels generally don't fit late 944 cars. E.g., the stock 7.5" D90s on my 951 barely clear the front calipers.

one piece factory Fuchs won't work on any 944 past 86 offset.

custom 3 piece Fuchs are a different story because they can adjust the offset as well as the width. If they CAN'T - it's because they are the distributer, and not the manufacturer.

HRE makes the 311s. They can build any of their wheels to fit any car as everythings custom. They'll even paint them if you want to get creative. I love all their rims.

Thanks Luis!


Oh, and as to the fittiment issue over large calipers, the HRE 311's will fit. I specifically spoke with them about that issue because I was concerned of them fitting over my S4 calipers. The HRE wheels are not made from "donor" fuchs like the Lindsey Racing 17" fuchs, so there will be no issue. If you were to buy the Lindsey 17" fuchs (made from donor 6" wide 911 fuchs), they would not fit over the large calipers due to too much material on the back side of the "petals" (hence the difference between 911 and 951 fuchs).
