CHEAP, yet good looking wheels to battle the Charlotte, NC potholes...
18 x 8 [ET45] (225-40-18) in front; 18 x 11 [ET52] (295-30-18) in rear... the 928 wasn't on the fitment chart -had to use 911 widebody fitment IIRC.
Victor Equipment LeMans wheels w/ factory colored center caps
Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires
NO spacers!

Thanks for the compliments, but these are not RH wheels, although they look like them.
According to the German title, the fronts are BBS-RS 080, 9" x 17". Rears are BBS-RS 083, 13" x 17".
I restored these wheels last year, they suffered years of corrosion and neglect by the P.O.'s. They have to be at least 10 - 13 yrs old. But they are still straight and cleaned up beautifully. The original rim bolts had the BBS logo and i.d. marks on them (which I replaced). The wheels where probably added by Kerscher Tuning after Koenig did their work..., but its hard to tell.

Here's my car with Cayman S wheels:
18x8 and 57mm offset with 245/40/18 tires in front
18x9 and 43mm offset with 275/35/18 tires in back
The fronts rub on large bumps so are too wide. (Actually just one side but that's my special car.) I'm going to add S4 upper arms for more camber and that should bring the wheel in the needed 1/4".
The rears fill the arch completely.

I know of you guys like the Strosek look. I saw these on eBay today. Price may be too high, but I wouldn't know.
