I really want some new wheels, but I want to fit the original offset of my 84 and not screw around with spacers. Any place I can look that has more that one option available?

Thanks!

There are few Porsche original wheels that fit.

Fuchs - Avalible in 15" and 16" versions 6" wide all the way to 9" wide - Forged, strong & light with classic look.
Cookie Cutters - Similar look to fuchs from distance. Common in 15x7" Cast wheels - Not highly prized. Great for track use since they a strong enough for racing on 944 na and cheap.

Phone dials - Cast wheel in 15" and 16" 7 to 8" widths. More updated than Fuchs or cookie cutters. Little heavier than cookiee cutters in 15x7" size. Not the MOST poplular wheel, but has a following.

Not much else that is Porsche original. Rest are aftermarket wheels. These can range from heavy crappy wheels to very expensive custom offset racing type wheels.

Thanks HTH, I am pretty familiar with all the stock 944 options, but I see many post here with early cars sporting some nifty new looks. I want to update the car some and just don't know where to shop for these new looks. Perhaps most of the new wheels do require spacers.
