Exclamation Need pics of 16x7&8 fuchs, and 17" wheels please!

I'm trying to decide whether to run 16x7&8 fuchs or 17x8 & 9.5 wheels on a '79 911SC coupe. I would like to see pics of your cars with either of these wheel combos to help me decide. Thanks!

I don't have any pictures here on my laptop, but here you go (again *evil grin*). You know you want these 17's, Mike.

Souk,

Your fronts looks to be different from the rears. The fronts look good. Who makes them??

Thanks. I am so looking forward to the snow disappearing so that I can get them on the car and take them for a good spin
Anyone know what is the best pressure to run these Toyo R888s @ (215/45-17 & 255/40-17)?

He isnt really, if he didnt influence me to buy a new suspension, go fast bits, etc. I would probably be buying drugs and hookers with the money. Souk's doing his best to keep kids off the street.

Yeah, I've seen Matt's stripped out hot-rodded SC in person, I'm sure you had nothing to do with that!

You've got Matt hooked on go fast parts for his car like a crack-junkie lookin' for his next fix!
