OK, just make sure that you get *late offset* wheels. I'm certain that the 15x7 phonies were made in both early and late offsets, and I *think* the 16" ones were as well. I believe those wheels were stock on 951s so if you're searching you may want to keep an eye out for, say, "1988 Porsche 951 wheels" or "1988 Porsche 944 Turbo wheels"

When you're looking at them, the centers of the wheels should almost be level with the lip, not set back in like the earlier ones. Also cast in the backside of the wheel will be the offset spec, early offset wheels are ET20-something and the late wheels are ET50-something.

good luck
