So what were the factory wheel options in 91 for the 964?
First of all thanks to those that have PMd me over the last few days in response to my search for Cup 1 wheels but it seems I may have been looking for the incorrect wheel.
I'm looking to put my c2 cab back to stock and had initially thought that 16" Cup 1s were available in that model year with an option for 17".
I've searched and read and read and searched. It seems that perhaps there were only 2 wheel styles in 91 for the 964...Design 90 and what the factory called "Disk Type" (aka 928 style?). Both were only available in 16" with 6J on the front and 8J on the rear (offset was ET52?). It also seems that 17" wheels (same wheel styles?) were only available on the Turbo.
Does that sound correct? Can anyone shed any more light on this? I was really hoping that Cup 1s were available that year as possibly the 2 least attractive wheels (IMHO) are the D90 and 928 disk style.

Pretty sure you're right - but why worry about it? Cup I's look awesome on a 964 and Cup II's aren't bad either. I've had both and after initial misgivings have grown to prefer the I's over the II's.
They are certainly very close to "Period Correct" and not anachronistic like turbo twists on an NA 944! : )

I have the same car as you and have replaced the factory 16" D90's. If you decide you want to pursue your desire to go to back to stock, I will send the D90's to you basically for the cost of shipping. They are in excellent condition and have factory centre caps. They have tires with decent tread remaining on them but haven't been on the car for over 5 years so I'm not sure I would trust the tires without some sort of inspection. PM me if you want pics or want to discuss details.

no argument here. I just see the day (in 6 years) where I want to get a collector plate for the car and drive around with it looking like it just came off the showroom floor. To do that the car needs to be period correct down to the wheels and stereo.
