Post Design 90 wheels

What offsets did these come in? Im looking for a little lip, but it seems the later came with a flat face, and the earlier had a little lip. Whats the average price for ones in need of visual re-finishing? anychance I could get a set for like 100-200$ or am I way out here

the amount of lip depends on the width. The wheels were made in widths from 6" to 9", the 6's having a little lip and the 9's quite a bit. What sizes are you looking for specifically?

I might be interested in selling my set of polished 6's and 8's that could stand to be re-clearcoated

Did you polish them yourself? Or did you have them done?

I ask because I was thinking that my D90s would look great on my white S2 with black spokes and polished lips.

Thanks.

7.0, ET55
7.5, ET65 (M030)
8.0, ET52.3
9.0, ET60 (M030)

Nobody cares about the 6" wide versions.

Im thinkin probably 16x8 all around.... maybe 7s up front. If anyone has either of these combos for really cheap E-mail me or post here please. I am looking for ones for like 100-200$ that need either paint, clearcoat, or anything cosmetic, but that are NOT pitted badly, no dents, no scratches that couldnt be taken out with a polishing. Thanks all!

Jim,
I didn't polish them. The PO must have just had the surface and lips polished because the inside of the spokes/rim is still painted. If I can find a pair of 9's I will just throw away the 6's and have the 9's done to match the existing 8's. I saw a red 911 this weekend with black center/silver lip design 90's . . .looked very good, sorta like fuchs.

Bryan,
what are you putting these on? A corrado? 4 16x8's will be hard to find as a set. In terrible condition they would still fetch more than 200 bucks. 7's are also very rare because they came only on 944 S2's. The M030 wheels are "grab both ankles" prices.

'Just purchased a 6x & 8x16 set. I'll be looking for a second set of 6x's and will be using them with blizzack's or the like, come winter here in the great northeast. That'll save removing offsets every winter for the cookie cuter snows. And yeah, I'll be looking for a set of 7x's or 8x's, same as everyone else. <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

I have a set of 7" and 8" 944S2 design 90 wheels that I am going to sell after I use up the track tires on them (or sooner for the right price). They are straight and true but at least one wheel has been scraped. W/centercaps. I'm looking for fair market value. If interested email me at d.manzella@grc.nasa.gov. Regards, dave
