Hi all,

Anyone got thoughts on lightweight 15x8 wheel options for 944 racing ?
Options here in Australia seem to be very limited due to the 5x130 stud pattern from what I can see
Cheers

AJ

The lightest 15in porsche wheels are actually the phone dials but are only 7j. Im guessing there will be a limited selection of aftermarket lightweight wheels in 15in 8j as not very common size. Do you absolutely need 15in? Going up to 16 or 17in might make it easier to find some good wheels.
