Some nice wheels for a 944

Hey I was thinking of getting some rims and tires for my 944. I like the BBS style but not the BBS price tags. Is there any company that makes some bbs style looking wheels without the price? Also whats the biggest rim and tire package that will fit on the 944?

I believe they are the turbo twist replica's. The paint is orignal just like 1,000 coats of wax and alot of sweat but it does need a repaint. I would love to get some painted center caps but they are to much $$$$ for what they are. I love the T1's very smooth handle great.

Go with some older BBS RS rims, the ones Mambodave is selling are perfect! They occasionally pop up on ebay in less than perfect condition and you can snag a deal
