Will they fit an 89 944S2? Proper offset and all you know.
Oh, also, are you sure they are painted caps, or they the cloisonne caps?

flash968

yes, they will fit an 89 - i have been told that 87 and later is the application

they are the metal caps, not the plastic ones - they look painted - how can i tell?

update on tread - new was 5/16"

rear is at 60% (3/16) - flat across

front is at 75% - 7/32" at the left and right - 1/4" at the center

Easy, the cloissone caps have a separate porsche shield glued onto them. The shield looks like it is made of gold and jewel like glass. Also they are clearly raised and dimensional. Painted caps that I have seen are simply that-painted on shields. There is a big difference.
Think of the cloissone caps as jewelry for your Porsche. They are beautiful!

thanks - never seen those - these are raised embossed and painted - not a shield stuck on the cap - these are the only type in metal i've ever seen - very standard, just not the black ones

Uh, Flash, those are C2 wheels not cup wheels. Go to Wheel Enhancement. com ( good people) to see a great selection of wheels. Also under accessories they show the caps I was talking about.
From your pix I believe you do have the nicer (in my opinion anyway) caps.
Cheers! Scott.

yeah - i've asked that question over on the 968 boards - none of the charts list "cup" anything, and i've only been calling them that because they do - damian said that C2 is cup 1 in another conversation where we were discussing weights - you are right though - they are C2 wheels - at this point, i think the whole "cup" thing is a misnomer

ROOEND

Flash, just go to Wheel Enhacement.com. It is not a misnomer.
Let me know what you think of the site.

flash968

ok - so i gues the misnomer is C2T being called Cup 1 - what Wheel Enhancement is calling simply Cup has been referred to, apparantly innacurately, as Cup 2 - this was always confusing to me, because i couldn't find anything anywhere that listed Cup 2

the site has improved nicely

thanks

Hi,
I just purchased a S2 cab today with the chome design 90's, I would be interested depending on where they are located and what the shipping might be.

sold 2 weeks ago - as expected, didn't last long at that price
