17" rim options for my early 911 with Carrera flares
Hello,
Been doing some searching and some of the 17" rim options that I knew of have been discontinued (BBS LM and ROH). I also saw the thread about the 17" Fuchs from Moses and I am thinking about those as an option. What other options do I have without having to look at the big $$$ wheels like Fikse, Kenisis, etc? Would like something like 17x7.5 and 17x8.5 with correct offsets / backspacing without having to run adapters or spacers. TIA, Scott

7.5/9.0 is an easy fit and even 8.0/9.0 can be an easy fit.
Quality 3 piece wheels do not always cost the type of money that Kinesis and Fikse and BBS get for their wheels.... Cheers

Also keep your eye open in the classifieds. I picked up some Borbet 17x7.5 + 9's for a reasonable price in the proper offset to fit my SC. They are heavy but for a street car they are fine.
