Default WTB: 16x9 Design 90 wheels

Like the title says...im looking for a set of D90s. I currently have 18s on the car but that really does not work on the streets of NYC.

I have a set of S4 wheels, so not D90s. Any interest in trading?
Photos of the 18s?

I can hope

If I were you, I would go with a set of 17" wheels instead of 16".
You would have a mutch better choice for the tires.
The choice of tires for the D90 now is very small.

But it's just me.

I have a set of usable 17" twists, as on my avator on my '90 GT, I would consider trading for 18s as well

Thanks guys....but im gonna keep my 18s...they're the 2002 911 5 spoke BBS light weights...pretty hard to find.
I wanna keep the stock look so im really looking for the D90s for the rear. Although I didnt really know that tire choices were so limited...i'll look into it. Thanks for the heads-up

Mark: Thanks but I really dont like chrome. But I'll let you know if nothing else comes up.
Aaron: If you have a set for the rear only I would be interested.

BTW...does anyone know if these would fit a 91 944 without spacers??? I thought they did but now I have a doubt...

Thanks

No idea, but 928-specific D90's are 7.5x16 ET 65, 9x16 ET 52.3 if that helps.

I have a set, from AO, powder coated ice black with colored center caps on my car. At this point these are my favorite wheels but as mentioned tire choices are definitely limited.
