I love the Fuchs, my 16" 951 fuchs are my favorite wheels that I have in my collection.

............................That being said, however......................

I personally think that Fuchs seem to look better on the 911series cars. For some reason they sometimes look out of place to me on the more angular body style of the 944series cars.

I like the look of the 18's on that 944, they do tend to update the car a bit. From my own personal experience, though, I think that they have to affect the drivability of the car, especially being an N/A. It's gotta suffer a bit coming out of the corners and from a dead-stop accelleration.

Were the casters upgraded to the 968 units? That may help with any potential tramlining issues.

Just lower it a bit, and get some center-caps, and it will look great!
