The host for my images died a few years ago. I think I still have most of the pictures on one of the hard drives though. I'll look around and see if I can re-host them on my current, stable domain.

Great pics Dan

Dan,

Thanks for this thread.

Have you gotten anywhere with your efforts?

The rear looks better, but my research yielded ease of suspension set-up this way. Ultimately, the Spec racers use 225 50's on 7 inch wheels, so I thought best to do the same.

Lemme start it up. I'll make a new username for my image gallery and maybe I'll share that user/pass with anyone that wants to help maintain the database. I'll get it going now.

Ok, here's the new home of the 944 Wheel Gallery...

http://evilengineering.com/gallery/v/rennlist/

I'm still populating it. Let me know if you have any corrections or suggestions. And feel free to post up/identify any good shots of different wheels mounted on 944s. Again if anyone has interest in helping to update/maintain this gallery, PM me and I'll share the user/pass for this account with you.

This is what it will look like soon enough...

hmm...not a fan of phone dials, but there's something about those wheels in white on a red car that looks cool.

More on its way soon. Hopefully at least 5-10 shots of cars with each style of wheel eventually. And there's going to be a ton of cars in the "aftermarket" folder.
