The Volk TE-37 wheels are one-piece forged as well. Super light at about 12-lbs/each in 16" sizes. Too bad they don't make them for our cars except in 18x8/10". There's also a magnesium option as well, but only for ricer cars. In Japan, they also make a cast titanium wheel as well... about 8-lbs/each... don't ask how much...

ET 85- 7jx16
Michael, you might want to check those numbers. Most later Porsche wheels are 55 mm offset (ET55), not 85 mm. You probably don't want 62 mm spacers, you would normally run something near 32 mm spacers for any post-'87 wheel. Danno seems to have the best information.

Club Sports are a bit of an oddball; iirc they are ET65 front (7x16) and ET60 back (9x16), so might take larger spacers.

Old-style Fuchs rock, by the way. A nice set of black (or colour-matched)spoke/polished rim Fuchs are classic.

yep, they do. i'm sticking with the fuchs. i dont like those chromed flat dish wheels anyhow, just thought i'd possibly go with a change since i have 2 sets of fuchs and 2 sets of cookie cutters.
