Both the 993 wheels and the PD's need refinishing. The PD's are far worse than the pics show.
I'm actually thinking of making the 993's the summer wheels. I like the look and the 9" rear looks better with the 245/45's.

One of the pics show the spacers in back. Just a FYI to anyone wanting to run the 9" 993 wheels: you can run 'em without spacers but they're tucked so far into the wheelwell that it looks awful IMO. 1-1/4" spacers brings them out almost flush, just a touch of rub on the drivers side. I'm going to turn them down to 1-1/8" and they'll be perfect.

Thanks. The pics hide a lot of sins.

She's a great 10-footer though!

Funny, pics of my cars don't show a single spot on either where th paint has been worn through to the primer...

It is odd how we are the biggest critics of our cars... I have taken my 951 to a few get togethers.. and not once has anyone asked me about the lighter and darker spots all over her!

I have gotten into the mode of "If noone asks, it isn't an issue"

Good luck...

Besides the car itself, my greatest ebay score ever was the 993 wheels.
Less than $250 WITH DECENT TIRES!
