Without any question it would be 17" RUF. The problem is that they never made them in the right offset for late cars AFAIK. I had a set and had to sell it because it simply couldn't fit on my 993 cab. But they would be perfect.

I do not like twisted wheels so I'd stay with classic straight 5-spokes. Of that bunch it would probably be Cup 2s, especially given rough roads - you don't want 18s with low sidewalls.

Pardon the OT question...
Terrance, the picture showing your cab parked on the slope, would that be the driveway of a condo complex called the Woodland Heights in HK?

Another vote for MY'02 . But if you can find a set of NB hollow spoke turbo twists that might be the way to go - light like the MY'02s, not very common, and actually an OEM option for the car.

I'd say Techart if are talking about the Daytonas. If you like that and the RH 3.6 style, check out the Veloce's. Lots cheaper. Some reasons for that, but I like them on mine.
