I believe there was at least one tech bulletin warning against the use of 18" or higher rims on any 944... people still do, of course, but just in case you weren't aware...

Thanks, been using 18" rims on my Cabrio for 9 years with no ill effects.

The offset of the stock 944 wheels for a cabriolet is like 52mm. These say 61mm. I think that means they will sit in a bit, but I dont think that means theyll fit.

Xsboost90 was running 18 inch 911 twists that were 18x10 in the rear (was early offset), and he went to sell them so I asked if they would fit on my car. (late offset)

I dont think they will fit properly without rolling the fenders a significant amount. I think that they will stick out a bit and rub the fender.

I also think that tech article stated against using 18's on a 944 because I *THINK* that the 18 inch wheels put a little more stress on the suspension, like the ball joints. I remember it saying it can cause premature wear.

But then again, im an idiot, and this is all based on if my memory serves me correctly. Usually my memory doesnt serve me very well. So everything I said above could be completely wrong and a waste of 2 minutes to read. If thats the case, I apologize.

great looking rims! Wish I had the funds

you shouldn't have any issues with fitment with those wheels. lots of people are running an et of 65mm at the rear and 50's in the front. worst case, you'll need a small spacer for brake/suspension clearance up front. not big deal

xsboost90

they will fit you probl will need some small spacers to kick em out if at all.

-i had 18x11'' wheels but they were 45mm offset in the rear so they would not fit late-duh Rock.

Porsche suggests that if you run larger than 16" wheels to update the castor blocks.

<------------ I think they'll fit. :-)

Hey Mello do you have any more pictures of your car? I'd like to see how those rims look on it.

I considered going to 18s when I was upgrading but decided to go with 17" since I use the car daily and my commute has some crappy roads.

I still like the look of the 18" wheel though.

Rock

Im sorry. Im retarded

Mello

Here's one. I don't really have any more. I thought the wheels looked better on my white car, but I still like them the best. Maybe the rear wheels could sit out a bit more with spacers. I think it's a 66mm offset on the rear 10X18s

They will fit good:
