Not the best picture, but it is the most recent...
16x7 and 16x8" phonedials from an 88 944 Turbo...Toyo tires all around - I believe 205/45r16 up front and 225/40r16 in the back. These, along with the Konis and the 951 sways really make this car ride like its on rails

Front wheels are 9 inch wide Ronal R10 Turbo's
Rear wheels are 10 inch wide Ronal R10 Turbo's
Front tires are 225/50/15 BF Goodrich G Force as are the new set
Rear tires are 245/50/15 BF Goodrich Comp T/A the new set are 245/50/15 Dunlop SP 8000's.
As for offsets and modifications. I don't know and don't care as the fenders are wide/ big enough to hold these wheels and tires... just barely. |
Those might be something else... these are the r10's I'm familiar with

Yeah they don't make them anymore {long time since they did} They have all the info stamped on them, I assume they just changed the design but kept the name the same. |

Kerscher Carmona 7.5x16 with 205/55/16 tyres and 9x16 with 245/45/16 tyres. Cos they are deep dish only issue is the centre caps - needed a 15mm spacer at the back and awaiting a 12mm one for the front.
In the middle of a paint job so excuse the tattynes of it...

Powder coated original Stock wheels, I haven't fitted them yet, so will post on car pic when sorted.
Fitting short motor bike valves which I think look better.
