they start at 80 quid, they are misspelled, often no one bids on them becuase they cant find them when they do an ebay search !!!!!!!

Doh

Use fatfingers.com that finds the misspelled ones!
Quite common to find Porsche spelt wrong & I have a lovely brand new Jaguar book bought cheaply because someone couldn't copy Jaguar from the cover.

Still available at £80 I am sorely tempted even if I just re-advertised them.

No as much as I would like to, I prefer my Cup1s and can not convince my Wife to let me bid and then travel to collect just to turn a profit, she has too many other things lined up for me to do rather than take a day out to collect the wheels.

So go for it looks like a bargain although the fronts look too narrow with 205 tyres on unless they have been stretched, so I would think the fronts will only be 6J rather than 7 so look really odd with 255 rears. I currently run 255 rear and 225 fronts and I like the balanced look.

Thats interesting because I have no great knowledge with these wheels and have made a mistake re sizes before, Im on alearning curve here.

If the fronts are 6" then they may be no good on a 944 Turbo as the other ones i bought similar were gorgous but on aturbo the front brakes snag. They were ideal for any other 944 I believe and defo a lux or an 's'. I havnt seen the problem with 7" fronts ?

I am not loking to resell I genuinely need some wheels that will fot my 944 Turbo.

If they are 6" fronts I wouldnt want them. I asked a question and the seller kindly gave the part number today but a I type I see someone has bid on them already over 150 pounds.

looke like I'll be giving it a miss too now :wink:

Cheers Mas

Still cheap at £155 but looking at the bid war going on they are going to end up expensive and in my opinion those twists do not look that good on a 944. Keep telling yourself that and it will make the pain go away.
