Ah, I see it now.

Just curious, how is Fuchs pronounced? Is it pronounced "****s" or something like "fooochs"?

I have been thinking about a set of either D90's or CS wheels for my S2. Used sets don't seem to be easy to come by, so I emailed Wheel Enhancement about the cost of a new set.

I'm thinking about going 9 x 16 all around (still tyring to figure out if it can be done with these wheels) so I can get more tire, rotate them, etc.

Any any rate, I think the idea is dead. Four new D90's were quoted at $2870 and CS's $5500!

Keep an eye on the used parts and on ebay. I sold a rough set of 6 D90 wheels for about $300. That set included 4 rear wheels. Tire selection for 16X9 wheels is very limited, so factor that into your equation when shopping.

I love D90s, but once my brother bought a set for his VW (!), I had to sell mine. Mine were 16x7 and 16x8, and the set he bought was 16x8 and 16x9 - I didn't even know where was a 9" d90! Well he hasn't used the wheels and I don't think he ever will, so I may have to find another set for my car!

I have a set of Club Sports, but I just don't like them as much. Maybe if they were painted silver instead of anodized bronze-ish...

Thank you.

As far as street tires go I have heard selection is very limited, but Bridgestone has recently started making RE-11 tires in 245/45-16. I'm pretty sure that's the right size, and I know they are great tires as I've used them before.
