What wheel size for 944 Turbo

I have a track car, looking for an extra set of Porsche wheels for practice days. I need 17", Looks like the 5 spoke Cup wheels will work well. They seem to come in many offsets, does anyone know which offset works best in getting the wheels out toward the fenders?

Is your car early or late offset?

To do that you need either wider wheels with the same offset or wheels with smaller ET number (or both). Original wheels are 7 & 8 inch wide with ET52. My other set is Keskin k2t wheels which are 8.5 and 9.5 wide with ET52 and they are fine with 225 & 255 (or even 285) wide tires. To achieve your goal I would use the CUP wheels with the following dimensions: 7,5x17 ET 52 und 9x17 ET 47 with 225/45 and 255/40 wheels (those are standard settings for Turbo S 944s).
