Default Sorry guys another 17inch Cup question ??
I f anyone remembers I posted a question about 17inch Cup alloys recently, well I didnt get them,.. they were on that auction site and were withdrawn 24hrs early ??

Question I have is would Cups currently fitted to a 944 of the following sizes fit

Fronts are = 7.5j ET 23 Tyres 225/45/17

Rears are = 9.0j ET 15 Tyres 255/40/17

As always your advice is much appreciated

Those are so called early ET wheels used in early 944, 911 etc. They are totally unusable in all 928s.
