Will these fit my '85? They are off of a 944.

Thanks again.

Nice looking wheel and they will fit but they do not have the correct offsets

Thanks, Fred. That is what I am trying to figure out. I don't have access to my car right now, and I don't know the width of my stock manhole covers. The 8" are the same, the 7", not so much. http://www.944racing.de/wheelweights.php

Some folks are quite happy to run with incorrect offsets and do not report any major issues but I take the point of view that anything less than Porsche specified defeats the entire point of owning a Porsche but that is me but then many owners never get anywhere close to the edge of the envelope or so I suspect and on the streets that is not unreasonable.

those wheels will fit just fine, stock ET is 65
might be nice to say the tire size you selected?

So if the stock ET is 65, then you are saying that my stock wheels are 16 X 7. The ET of 52 for the 8" in the ad match the 928 8" manholes. I guess the question is whether the front wheels being 8mm further outward will be noticeable. Regarding the tire sizes, I haven't selected any yet. I am just considering the wheels in the ad, which all have 205-50-16s on them (unfortunately).
