I love the 5 spokes, but I dont think that they look good on the 944.
Now if you have huge brakes to fill them it would be a different story.

The Cup II look period correct to me and get my vote.

ps. I still need back carpet. color LK

+1 They make the brakes look really tiny.

I agree. The 5 spokes look like someone changed the wheels (they did, but you are supposed to notice the package, not individual elements).

I prefer the Cup 2s, for same reasons as mentioned above.

I like the 17" cup and 18" cup II wheels on the 944 the best. Anything bigger than 18" starts looking too big for the car IMHO.

Default carrea's and cups

I like the cups with polished lips , and the carreas go well with the 968 body but if you add the 968 mirrors and door handles, the carrea's would update the whole 944 body.

I 'd like em for na .
