For my personal aesthetic, if I wasn't going for the stock trash can lids, that I really like and that are FORGED and LIGHT (even upgrade to the 7's and 8's for the 928) then no question the Fuchs. The CGT look is very OEM and just looks right.

My best advice would be to put on whatever you think looks nice.

I like the Cup wheels (obviously I have a set) but I don't think the flat black goes with the red car. That's just my opinion...others love that look.

My old "16 Ventiler" had 17 inch Cup wheels. The whole package looked really beautiful but my goodness those wheels were heavy! They were italian made replicas.

I presume you are looking for authentic Porsche Cup wheels? They are lighter.

Put your Borbet's (Powder coated black and delete the center caps) on the 941 and get some crazy wide Penta's for the UWB.

Haha, you like those Pentas don't you?!

Seriously, though, the Borbets won't work on the 941. Completely wrong offset, WAAAAYYYY too wide for the early offset suspension.

Nice Joejax... Is that a random photo, or do you know or own that project?
I always wondered what a yugo or pinto or geo, ect, would look like on 22's. Like I guessed... FUNNY!

I just added my 16x8 ET52.5mm all around 928 S4 rims (four rear wheels) to my 931. The preious owner painted them a dull dark gray metalic (probably Duplicolor wheel paint). I'm going to powder coat them in black chrome. After seeing them in person, these are the wheels all 924/944 should have came with. In the words of Wayne and Garth "ShaaaWing!!!"

The 245's fit with enough clearance, I think I would try 255's all around on your wider fenders. Pure sex!!!

If you squint your eyes, it kinda looks like a 24!

hideous over-sized rims on any vehicle, monster trucks excluded)

The Fuchs have caught up in the poll.
