Its an early 70's RSR look car. It is awesome, go to Pelican and search for Black Beauty, and Balck Beauty II, there are some good threads on it. It has a 3.6 in it as well, pretty sweet.

I don't know if they make them into 18's for sure.

Jerry, my wheels are Braid. From spain.

The 17" Fuchs are made out of 16" donor wheels. I guess they could make 18" but never seen any. Obviously the centres could not get any bigger, only the rim.

That (black car) is Jack Olsen's car. 3.6L conversion.

IMHO, the "correct" wheels for the 964 turbo would be a set of 18" speedlines (which were the wheels on the '94 3.6 turbo). Hard to find & expensive.

Kinesis sold a Speedline look-a-like. I understand that Kinesis was bought my another company recently, but I do not know the name of the acquiring co. You might try Wheel Enhancement.

Good luck with your pretty red car.

Thanks Richard. The car is running great, thanks to some help from Steve at IA and my local mechnic, not that it can be driven at all here in Colorado.

Having followed from the sidelines the build of both of Jack's cars, they are pretty sweet.

Your car looks nice. I really like your front splitter.

Nathan, what year is your turbo, looks more like a 964 T than a 930. Is that its original paint? Awesome car and those wheels must have set you back a few bills. Dholling, your silver combination is a head turner.
Everytime, I get comfortable with my great running 90 NA, you turbo guys show up with your eye candy and I start looking again. This website is a curse (sometimes)!!

Thanks guys, I get more comments on that piece then any other part of the car. It is fiberglass and was a bear to install but the finished product is cool. I need to update the pictures of the car since removing the bumperettes...

My car is a '81 930. A previous owner spent a fortune on this car, he bought the wheels and they are similair to the 964 3.8RS wheels. It is not original paint, but the car was blue. The paint is or is similair to the 964 3.8RS. My actual car starred in this video as the "turbo" and that is my actual car on the front cover.
