I think you mentioned the size of the rimhalves before, but do you care to repeat them and also the offset for the rear wheels?

the rears (the ones pictured) are 9.5" inners and 4" outers. I'd have to measure the backspacing to get the offset exactly right but I believe it ended up somewhere around et27

Classic wheels and most certainly what I would choose if I were looking for something other than stock. Your car looks gorgeous.

Full Boost - I think yours is the nicest looking fully modified car that I have seen yet. That looks truly serious - Well Done!

I bought a set of original speedline mag centred 993GT2 wheels
9X18 ET34
11 X 18 ET18

My GT2 Arch kit was fitted with these wheels in situ so the edge of the arches were nice and flush.
If you ever see a real GT2 wearing its original wheels you will note that is a big gap between wheel and edge of arch and many owners used spacers to get the right look.

When the speedline mags broke (which they all do eventually) I got the BBS E88 in same sizes.
My E88s were one of the first sets of the (then) new aluminium centred versions and the centres then sat behind the rims where they are bolted unlike now (see Adam's above) where the centres are bolted on in front of the rims.
