Default FS: 17 inch 3 piece Forgeline(Momo) GrandAm Wheels

From 2006 997 GrandAm car. Wheels have Momo label, but were made for them by Forgeline. (probably for promotional reasons). Confirmed by checking the original order with Forgeline rep..

Front - 17 x 9 offset 55
Rear - 17 x 10.5 offset 35

includes Continental slicks 245/45/17 Front & 275/40/17 Rear

Original Retail: $920 front / $960 rear.

Condition: Wheels are used (Look at the rim). Matt Black finish shows some scratches from enthusiastic fast pit stop impact wrenches. One lip has a slight dent that I wouldn't bother fixing if I could use them on my car. See picture at 9:00 o'clock.

Slicks are in good condition, but are probably a few years old.

$1200 for the set.

Wheels are at BodyMotion if you want to look at them. Buyer pays shipping, but I will be at WGI for the clash at the end of the month and can bring them.

For comparison, I have 50mm offset 8.5 fronts, 65mm offset 10 rears. Fronts would likely work, but doubtful the rears would. Stinks as these would probably be a good, inexpensive, light wheel, and Hoosier is now making a good sized rear tires for 17's.

These offsets came from Forgeline who read them off the build sheet for the original order. They are from continental series when 17 inch was the spec and running on a 2006 997. That might explain the odd offsets.

I don't know what a 944 would need. I am guessing more offset, but if the offset isn't quite enough, wouldn't spacers do the trick?

rear offset is 35, so you would need a spacer for the rear. My 996 GT3 wheels need a spacer in rear to properly fit my 997 (clear the brakes).

Rears will not work on a late offset 951, they will stick out too far. For a 10.5" wheel you would want 60+ offset in the rear.
