Hi Simon,
I was thinking around £600 inc tyres and coloured Center's, but I may need my arm twisting as I just know what to do! I could then use the money towards my new suspension or brakes
I much prefer the look of the sport design's but the 16's give so much better ride on our lovely roads! I just don't like the D90's that much, the car as Lin say's always looked different before and ow looks like any other 44
I am happy for you to comment on price if you think that's too dear for what they are?

Nice to see a few pics.
The cup 1 looks much better than I expected.
Colouring the wheel in gun metal is a good idea. I think black wheels on my car may not work.
My personal favourite (for the moment at least) is the split rim option. Perhaps I may have to wait until I can find 17" split rims as a compromise??
Other than eBay and Pistonheads, where else should one look to search for wheels?

18" Sport Design's ROCK! That's what i'm running, the same as Andy's and, the drive is superb in every aspect. Porsche don't know what they're talking about!

Here's some proper wheels, needing a bit of elbow grease to look as nice as my avatar [&:]

18" Sport Design - run for 9 years with no problems they are in the garage at present - might sell them
16" D90's - As she is now ..........but I am just not sure?
I prefer your 18" Sport Design wheels - if I had a Turbo, I'd by them in a flash.

Here's something a bit different ,boxster s wheels ,they don't exactly go with the 944 lines but i like them and they are also lighter than all of the above including the 16's.
I agree Catalin - quite similar to mine. I chose these because I wanted 17" rims for tyre choice, lightweight and 8J all round
As Fuchs and Early turbo teledials are out for a late turbo, I think the best OE look is the Cups (1 or 2), but the best drive will be on a set of 16" clubsports. If you can find some split rims with a deep dish (see below) then there are some other options.
18's are too big - they don't look right to me.
What's really important, and hasn't been mentioned yet, is to get the car sitting nice & low so there's very little gap to the wheel arch. That's what makes the car look really good.
my last car had a couple of different sets
17" Speedline split rims - looked great but very heavy
16" Club Sports
My S2 came on these
17" Eta Beta Split rims
I also tried these
16" Cups - very light but probably not enough tyre for a turbo. Transformed the drive though.
