Default Pics of my plain simple stock Black EURO 83 944 on 16" Fuchs

Here are some recent pics of my EURO 83 944
No mods at all
These were taken at a local 24 hours driving event
Car performed spotlessly
Power is not its hot point, but I absolutely enjoyed the chassis

That is a gorgous 944. Thanks for sharing.

I forgot to mention that the only change performed was to install original Fuchs wheels which are 7s & 9s x 16

I've always loved deeper-dish rear wheels. Is there a proper name for those? That look amazing on most cars, to me. Great car.

V nice. looks really clean

I am going to put the Fuchs, that came with my car(in boxes). I am polishing them up now and will put them back on when I get them all shiny. IMO they are one of the nicest wheel choices for these cars, and look a lot better than the wheels that were fitted to my car when I bought it
peace

That is the best looking early NA I've ever seen- very nice. Makes me want one to road rally with!

P.s.: how much for 3 cu. yds. of pea gravel?

+1 i love fuchs!
when i was looking mine over several years ago, I found they were 930 fuchs, 16x7's and 8's.
the 8's have much more defined deeper dish than the 7's and 944 turbo 8's don't have the same deep dish.
9's are a rare option so you scored lucky there. i'd love to run 8's and 9's!
