Default Anyone w/Tire Rack 17in cup 4's?

I have seen the larger 18in and 19in OEM wheels here on other peoples 928's.

I was wondering if anyone has picked up a set of the 17's that Tire rack has. The wheels and tires on the '89 I picked up are trash and was thinking of grabbing a set. Currently they are about $675 for all 4.

Any pictures of the 17's on a car?

Looks like I may have found a pic but not sure.




Post 1002 in the wheels thread, to bad he doesn't state the size. Those actually loook more like 18's but I could be wrong.

Rears are fine but the 17" front are 52 offset which isn't optimal.
I personally like the 18" Cup 5 for the Panamera with the 59 front offset. $736 for set of 4 from Tire Rack.

Hope they will make wider 18" Cup 5's. 10-11" would be great at rear. Its too much to hope for 8.5 ET67 or 9" ET73 fronts.

If anybody wants them, I've got two 19x11s that are basically brand new. They should bolt on to a GTS; did not fit my S4. I'll sell them for half of what the Rack is asking for them now; you pay shipping or pick up. The rack should still have the 19x8.5 fronts that fit just fine for me to round out the set.
