Those look perfect Dan. I really liked the Moda's but those look serious.
You drove 400 miles to put them on last night? You are a die hard!

I just sold my big wheels. I can't compete with you and Sam now.

Hmm, they do have those late offset 17" Fuch's replicas......

I can just imagine the conversation at Casa del Tifo-

Tifo: are these GREAT!
SigOther: Nice, where will you put them?
Tifo: I'll sell this set I already have (crossing fingers behind back)
SigOther: Well, the other set needs to go FIRST this time.
Tifo: Oh They will, they will. (Plotting a place to hide a set of mounted wheels offsite somewhere)

Six months later...

SigOther: I thought you sold those wheels!
Tifo: No, that was the OTHER set..

j/k!

If I could, I would be doing the exact same thing Tifo. and having the SAME conversation...

LOL!

Well.........................ssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....there is already another set of Fuchs on route to my house. I hope they are home waiting for me and I get home before said sig-other.......



(I picked up a pair of 16X9 930 fuchs and a pair of 16X7 911 fuchs. I WILL be selling the 16x7 911 fuchs, though, as there is no way in heck they will fit on my car. But I had to take them with the 930 wheels as the seller would not break up the set. )

My name is Tifo.

Yes, I too have a sickness.

I has been 2 weeks since my last wheel purchase....

Great choice! The BBS LMs are the only aftermarket wheel I would consider for my 951. They're often overlooked in the catalogs, but they're just perfect when fitted on the car, as seen in your pics!

BBS and '80s Porsche is a perfect match!
