nah, this thread gives me all the background i need to know.

but those won't fit without spacers, right? i'm trying to stay away from spacers, just a personal preference there.

I second that. Being that "fast44" is run by a fellow local PCA member, there are lots of Porsches with Forgelines on them running around here in the Dayton, Ohio area. Nice wheels, light, look good. A bit pricey, but in wheels you generally get what you pay for.

Kodiak Racing Wheels

A tad pricey, but then you compare the size and offset options, theyre lightweight and strong, and a set of new ones costs the same as many used Porsche wheel sets.

And really, an 18" by 15" wheel for like $500USD? Not that bad IMHO.

based on the website i like 'em. be nice to find a used set though, i'm trying not to break the bank here and 2k + the cost of 4 new 17" tires is a bit more than i wanted to spend right away.

You could alway do it the way i did. Find car with rims you like. Buy car. keep rims, sell car

Ok its prob not the best way to do it but it worked for me. (not that I really wanted to sell the car in the first place either)

I know how you feal. I don't want to get fuchs cause they make the car look old... They really do idc what you people say. Then again all the other wheels look nice but are 10 pounds heavier. See you are lucky you have Fuchs so you can sell those things for 400$ a peice!

If you want to sell them let me know i have been looking for a set but if your going to sell them give me a good price

I hear ya, I am back to Phonedials that I don't care for, I sold the 17" Boxster Twists I had to pay for the new clutch.

Good used wheels are hard to find and I can't sell the PD's for anywhere near what you can get out of the Fuchs $800 +

Red1

My sentiments exactly. Never was fond of PD's either. I could tolerate the Club Sports for awhile, but pulled them in favor of a set of Kinesis wheels last year.

To me the Fuchs just look old. I guess put me in the minority too. I feel a good set of Kinesis, Forgeline, or Fikses update the car nicely and keep it more contemporary-looking. JMO.

If anyone wants to get rid of their 16x8 black furchs ill take em!!

I really don't know what's so nice about them.. except they are retro :-D

I parked in front of a Mustang GT (05) and I realized the Mustang had similar style wheels (very nice on the Mustang actually).
