Can you tell me who made those wheels for you Rodsrsr?

This would be my ultimate wheel for my build. Having a set of modular 17" Fuch's with now spacers :eek:

You say "not a 930" - what body/suspension combination is this?
Looks great.
If your car is 911-based, what offsets do you have on these wheels.

I am in the market for 9x17 and 11x17 for my 88 Carrera with turbo flares and I am looking for optimal offset to fill the guards.

Thank you... The car started as a roller 76 912E with complete removal of all suspension, brakes, steering. Upgraded to 911 track specs with 23/28 T-Bars, rear coil overs, sway bars ft & rear, Boxter brakes all around, 6 point welded in cage, turboed 3.2 with 915 LSD gearbox, ect,ect,ect.. The wheels are made by Lindsay. WHEELS at LINDSEY RACING - Your Porsche Performance Parts Center and all you need to do is tell him what its going on and he'll create the proper wheel. You do however need to supply a set of 16x6 Fuchs to re-size.

To the O.P there is no such thing as "deep" offset. It is either more negative or positive than stock.

Here is my HRE set that ws custom made and is more negative than the +17mm/+24mm OEM set-up.

Huh? Of course there is. Deep offset is as old a well used, perfectly understood a descriptive term as any I can remember from as far back as the 70's.

Let's here it for more DEPTH!! Yeah baby!!

I have to agree with this... just like calling an internal combustion engine a "motor", it's a widely used term we all use. ;)

Car looks good Yasin!!

I am not disputing that nor the long history of using "deep offset" description, but calling a "wheel deep" offset is not a helpful description for fitment.

Yep, enginesports just doesn't roll off the tongue quite as well does it?

You did say "there is no such thing as..." Can't just let you get away with such absolutes here without some debateful ribbing donchya know. Frankly more negative or more positive isn't helpful either without specifics and for those who don't know which is which "deeper" is absolutely descriptive, although none of the above actually will get you what you want.

To be ultimately helpful IMHO would be something like... "if you want to go for the deeper dish look that'll fit under your 930 turbo flares without spacers go with _____fill in dablanks_______." I don't know why but for some reason this is some of the hardest data to actually get out of anybody to fill in da blanks. I've yet to get a response to my inquiry from ages ago... repeated above by Brother Merlin.

I can fill in the blanks for you. I had my HRE custom made and I did all the measurements at home prior to their assembly.
As follows:
The fronts are deep dish
The rears are deeper dish.

Touche indeed. ;-) Figures you'd go "negative." LOL

I'd love to know the difference between your offsets & those of rodsrsr.

Unfortunately my outer rim halves are too wide & don't fit unless I were to add 934 flares. So either I rebuild this set or look for buyer with 934 or RWB clone.
