is what I wanted one day to mount to my 90 C2
never understood what the ET thing is...I know 964's are 5x130mm bolt pattern and 7.5 is the width 16 is the diameter....what exactly is the ET for and how do I know what ET my '90 C2 needs?
I guess my question is if I ever found a set of gold mesh BBS wheels for my Porsche...I would need what ET for the front and what ET for the back?
(assuming I stay the stock diameter and width..7X16 and 9X16)

GeorgeK is selling a set of refinished 964-fitment BBS RS with silver centers - see the 'for sale' thread. He's asking a very, very good price.
Useful 'guideline' for fitment, from the Wheeldynamics site:
The [964] works with 8"-9" wheels with offsets [ET] from 45mm to 60mm in the front. Rear the offset needs to be 58mm or lower for 9" and 10" wheels.

ET is short for Einpresstiefe which is German for "Press Depth"
Agree GeorgeK's wheel would be a steal if the 1K was in USD and local, but I would assume he means Euros, and shipping from Switzerland would be steep.

I assumed he means Swiss Francs since Switzerland isn't on the Euro (which would be an advantage to the US buyer)...that or he means USD since this is a mainly US based audience. BTW shipping form Europe may not be as bad as you think...
