Do any aftermarket wheels look good on the 924 or are you guys just fans of the stock rims? _________________ 1977 924 - sold

the only really good looking rims for these cars only come in 5 bolt pattern, sorry to say, and imo CUP 2 or Turbo Twists are the best. _________________ 3 928s, |

I'll be getting some BBS style spoke wheels with backspacing for mine. I think Enzei is the company that sells these in 4x108 pattern. |

Or because Enkei is a rice brand that gets most of their money from Honda children.  |

I have three Boxster rims and they fit. I am missing one 16 in front. Anyone have one or does anyone want to buy my 3. They are brand new take offs from my Porsche dealer. They are really nice looking. _________________ "Never let them see you sweat"

I like the flat dish chrome wheels! Have a set from a 928S4 on my 1982. Of course I had to upgrade to 944 brake and hub set up.

I kinda like the Exel TZ-16, and only $99 each!
If you want to search our bolt pattern only, choose '97 Civic or Ford Contour  |

i just cant wait to get my hands on a set of these:
or these:
both 18"
unfortunatly the 911 turbo twist weels cost at least 2000 EUR.(rims alone)
I've found a set of the other kind of weels for 650 EUR....but there is a problem...they are too wide. 8.5" front (245 tires) and 10" rear (265 or 285)
will i be able to steer with 245 on the front ? whats the narowest size tires that can go on 8.5" rims ? _________________ Supercharger and EFI kits
