Thank you and I sold the my grey 964. I do have a complete build thread on here where I go into detail about the suspension set up. Car handles amazing and I copied the set up on my Rubystone 964. Just search for threads started by me in 964 forum. I’m traveling but once I get settled I will try to share the thread.

Wheels use centers with PN ending in 623, which allows you to run a deeper lip. Specs are:

18x8 et +47 (6" barrels, 2" lips)
18x10 et +47 (7" barrels, 3" lips)
I’ve read some comments that the 0288623 centers require a spacer to clear big reds (5mm). Can anyone confirm? The deeper setup is definitely my favorite.

My E88's use center 0288274 and they clear the big reds. Can't help you on the 623's.

Intersting! Front and rear? What are the rest of the specs?

I have big blacks (same as big reds AFAIK) and I don't have any fitment issues or need for spacers. Note that I'm running et +47 all around and I think most go for +50, so that may buy me the space needed. It is a very close fit.

I have to check the silver centered 8 & 10's I use on my C2 track car but the others are for my WB track car so much wider. Both use big reds no issues.

​​​​​​BBS E88 Wheels - Gold centers, polished lip, natural inner
Front: 9x18 et 50 0288274 ctr (1” and 8”)
Rear: 12x18 et 42 0288107 ctr (3.5” and 8.5”)

So what is the ideal center to look for in order to fit a NB 964 with the most lip and maybe have a CHANCE at not rolling anything (I know that depends some on tire choice).

I've seen a ton now and I thought I had it narrowed down but nope. 0288107, 108, 170, 274, 623

I was told by BBS USA that the 623's allow for the widest possible lip on a NB. That's what I bought (see above).

Yeah, the centers thing is driving me nuts. I want to just buy the right thing...and while I want to trust a BBS vendor to give me the correct combo - I'm also a control freak, so I want to know how each different center and hoop configuration affects the outcome.

even though multiple centers fill in all the necessary use gaps, trying to figure out all the offsets, center profiles, caliper clearance, lip depth, etc. can be exhausting.
