Help! - best wheels for a 930?

Hi, recently purchased an 86 930 with later model 18" turbo wheels. Car feels slightly squirly and a couple people have recommended gong to 17's or 16's (if I can find tires) that don't need the offsets so looking for feedback from any experienced 930 drivers on the different types and sizes of wheels they have tried and any recommendations.

Cheers in advance.

Rob

18's a little big for the older cars but there are more tires available and the weight difference isn't really that big. How about some pictures and let us know what size wheels and tires they are.

Rob,

I invite you to go to the 930 turbo & supercharger forum on Pelican. You will find very helpful threads with pictures covering your question or post your question there. I run 17" rims made by Lindsey Racing with Toyo R888 tires.
