Pic request - 7/9 Fuchs and flat lid

Folks

Looking for some pics of IB's with 7 and 9" fuchs and flat engine lids..... preferably rear end shots.

I've got an option on some 9s, but can't help feeling they look over-tyred on a car with a flat lid (which i plan to fit)

Have 8s on the rear at present, which i'm thinking are a better match with their 225's, rather than 245's on 9s.

Hope you can help!
Cheers

check out the random 911 pictures thread... I am sure there must be some photos of value to you there.

These are 9" Fuchs on the back of my "flat" hooded 89 coupe. I have 8's up front.

Fuchs 7s or 9s on an '88 / no tail

Here's a couple of shots..... my 7" and 9" track wheels on the left with 205s and 245s mounted....the original 6" and 7" on the right.... 205s and 225s mounted. The 9's are way better looking! (oh, and the car is filthy, I know!)
