I was thinking this would be a good idea, but maybe with more details?
e.g. copy and paste:
Car: (early/late)
Wheel manufacturer & model:
Wheel dimensions & offset, front:
Wheel dimensions & offset, rear:
Tyre Specs:
Spacers front: (if applicable)
Spacers rear: (if applicable)
Suspension modifications: (if applicable)
Guard modifications: (if applicable)
Because too much information about wheels can never be a bad thing
And may I add, your car looks great!
Post update:
Car: '83 944
Wheel manufacturer & model: Sport Classic II Replica
Wheel dimensions & offset, front: 18x8.5 ET47
Wheel dimensions & offset, rear: 18x9.5 ET47
Tyre Specs: Front: 225/40/18, Rear: 265/35/18 Sumitomo HTR Z II
Spacers front: stock
Spacers rear: approx 1 inch
Suspension modifications: none
Guard modifications: none

Thanks
. Yes the offset helped allow the 8.5's up front, never have had a problem with rubbing. I'm running fairly lowpro tyres so I think that helps. Might be a different story when I lower it! Will get back to you then P.S. PorscheDude1 you have great taste in wheels... love both those 968s! Ideola, great cars, I have always wondered what type A's would look like on a 944, had my eyes on a set in similar sizes to yours!
Keep those specs & pics coming people!

Your "second" set are not cup IIs. Cup IIs were only 17" wheels. They are called, by wheel enhancement, C2 5spokes...( http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...elDetail&id=30 ) but I do believe there is a "cup" designation or D93 or something like that. They came on the 968 as the base wheel and also were used on the 964
