WES, the center caps I did myself. Hand painted centers and chrome like vinyl surround. They look kinda neat I think. Sorry, I am having trouble enlarging it. (the photo that is)

Here's some more wheel pics- hope I'm not overposting here, but this could end up being a pretty cool thread...

CHEERS944- I know that many cars have gone overboard w/wheel size, but the rear wheel on the 944 looks sort of small & inset- a lot depends on the tire size being used, it's offset, etc- it's an issue of multiple things & if each is addressed just slightly, it all adds up... I know a few have tried 19's on these cars & I think that's definately overdoing it...

Does anyone here have a pic of one of our cars w/Fikse Profile 13's...? I've only seen them on 911's...

Some other cool wheels on these cars- Fikse FM5's & 10's, CCW's, some of the Kinesis & someone here had a red 951 with Simmons wheels- looked similar to some of the CCW & Fikses. HRE's are another possibilty but I don't like them as much as the above mentioned- I picked some up at Racer's Edge- pretty light for their size (18x10 IIRC) but I think mostly b/c they were really open-faced...
