Post Wanted: 16 inch wheels--disc or Design 90

I'd like to buy a set of wheels for my '87 944 Turbo. I currently have the standard phone dial rims, but would like to upgrade the look of the car to either 928 "disc" style wheels or the Design 90 variety. If anyone has some to sell, please let me know. Thanks.

I have a set of 16" discs. I will take $175 plus shipping. Finish isn't perfect but most people strip and polish anyway. Nice center caps go with.

I've still got the polished 16" disc wheels that came off my '84. Good condition, needs rubber. Email me if you're interested.

Thanks Jessa, but the offset will be different from a 1984 than my 1987.

BTW, I'm still looking for wheels. I actually purchased a set on Ebay of 16 in disc wheels and had them shipped all the way from Canada. Unfortunately, these "like new" wheels with "minimal curb rash" had lots of curb rash. One rear wheel was burned with rash almost all the way around, and there was a gouge out of one of the front wheels. So, I may be selling this set as track wheels or as a second snow set of wheels. If anyone is interested, let me know.

Or, of course, if anyone has a legitimately nice set of Design 90's or disc wheels for sale, let me know as well.

From Canada as well. I've been emailing about fitment for my car. Looks like a bit of work for them to be able to fit though.
