In need of 17" wheels for my 944 with low offsets so I can avoid spacers.
My stock wheels don't fit anymore with new brakes!! lol fail.
Would love some turbo twists.
I live in Orlando FL so pickup would be awesome but not necessary.
Please, email me at fabio944@live.com.
Thank you!

Fabio....what year 944 are you planning on putting them on? On the later cars there's a rounded shoulder on the hub and I'm not sure if the turbo twists will fit over it. You'll know when you try to install the fronts as putting the lugs on, it won't fit right. I put a set of 1/4" spacers on the fronts and the problem was easily solved. No extended lug bolts required and they (my Caymans) fit the wheel well just right.

problem isnt the late 944 hubs, its the wheels. Late boxter and 911's had a sealed bearing and the wheels are made differently requiring a 1/4" spacer to fit right, but i think the boxster twists are ok, just not the late boxster S twists.

Thanks for replies guys.
I have a 84 944 with 330mm front cayman rotors and 87 hubs spindles on front with 86 turbo rear rotor.
If it comes down to a 1/4" spacer on the front that's ok until I can afford some custom wheels.
