Question 17" Fikse Rims

Is anyone running a similar size/offset wheel on their 928? What size tires are you using?

17” x 8.5”
5x130 bolt pattern
7” inner half/1.5” outer half
6.75 backspacing (~50.8mm offset)
20.05lbs.

2 rear wheels and the specs are:

17”x11”
5x130 bolt pattern
9” inner half/2” outer half
8.625 backspacing (~66.6mm offset)
20.68lbs.

You really should not go below ET55 in front, if possible.

Those sound a LOT like my FM10's that I have for sale actually... Isn't that the standard 930 offset?

Alex, you are right about keeping above 55mm on the front offset if possible. In my case w/ stock ride height I have had no problems at all w/ these, but they do stick out a touch so a REALLY big pot hole would ruin my day!
