Believe it or not there are still some good manufacturers over there

I sell these wheels like crazy for winter packages and they look and work great.

Give me a call if interested.

Sorry, no 944/928 pictures..

Damon, do they make these in 18"?
TIA

Hope you guys don't mind me posting pics of a 928 in your forum.

I'm sure Damon will respond but here is a pic of my GTS with 18s on the front (19s rear):

I'm playing around with different fitments b/c I want to lower the front a bit with the Bilsteins/springs I've ordered and the 18s will give me more flexibility; the 19s sit further outward.

Here is the GTS with 19s all the way around...

Nice car.
So did you pick up these wheels from Tirerack? What is the cost difference between yours and the 17's shown in the ad?
TIA

At the moment unfortunately no, among a few things upgrading hubs and spindles, so mounting in front isn't exactly going to happen when there's nothing there to mount on

Will 18X10 58 mm offset fit on the rear of a late offset 951?
Anyone know if it requires a spacer, etc.?

Ehall, you will be fine with that. I’m using 18x11 et63 which is 22mm more towards the fender from factory. The 18x10 et 58 is only 15mm out. The Porsche OE 10in wheels are et 65, so you’ll be 7mm further out than those.

Check here for an example of the 18x10 et65.

Here is my 18x11 et63 OE wheel.
