 Thoughts on 924 wheels please...What's on now... 16" compomotives ...or a set of satin black oe alloys or a set of oe silver alloys (have both) |

I think those Compomotives are a really good looking wheel.

Porsche did loads of styles of OE alloys...if you want to know which ones will look best you'll have to tell us which ones you have. I do like the ones that are on your 924 at the momment, but I think you're right in thinking some OE Porsche alloys might look better.

One set in satin black, the others are original silver finish  |

16" Saab Aero (Carlsson) 3 spokes. The proper ones with the dish and flat faces like these:  They would look awesome on a 924, especially if it's sitting a little nearer the ground.  |

For some reason I feel like large diameter (15" or even 17") minilights with a nice bit of dish would look spot on. Not seen one with them before either. That or something like a tsw hockenheim would be awesome.  If you're just asking compo's or the tarantulas then I'd say the compo's for definite, that's just my opinion though. |

Escort Cosworth 8x16" wheels, always wanted to see them on something non-Ford. Lovely low offset concave rims...  |

Sierra - here we go again! He has an illness, it's not his fault.

You'd be looking at around 20mm spacers with the offset of the ford wheels.

Guy's, I don't think he wants ideas on which alloys to buy. He already has three sets of alloys and want's to know which ones he should fit. He has the Compomotive ones that are fitted above and two sets of Porsche Tarantula alloys. One set all silver and another with the centres painted black like the ones pictured below.   Now, whatever alloys you fit baggabones, I'd get it sitting lower and loose some of the bodywork trim. (Rear spoiler, rubbing strips and mud flaps).  |
