Paul,

If Mike doesn't need the spacers I think I would be able to use them.... Not positive yet, but I think i'll be finishing up most of my suspension this weekend and will know more then....

Just use washers to test fit the wheels, no need to spend the $$ on spacers.

When Ian fit those wheels, he didn't have the spacers he needed to actually try and drive the car with the wheels mounted. He mounted them for me to guesstimate how much spacing I would need and to see how they looked on a 944.

They look even better on a red car with the AIR splitter, but obviously thats purely subjective. I'll take some pics of my cluttered garage tonight so you can see what I mean.

I think I'm not quite ready to give up yet, but the wheels are officially on Ebay. If they sell, great, I'm not going to lose any money. If they don't, then I have time to figure out how to fit them.
