Yeah they are the D90's, very nice wheel and look fat on the mk2. Thats a fare price for them too, they look in good condition, wont cost much at all to have the lips polished. Think the thing i really like is the fact that they are the 7.5" front and 8" rear, you tend to find a lot of them for sale that are the same width all round.
I would try and nock a bit off the price bet they would let them go for 400  then next issue you will have is what tyres to put on them? Do you want some stretch for euro look or good tyres for performance?

[Adamdubz]

its all about stretch "low and slow" for me, why would you want to go fast in such a nice car so people will miss it  ?? tho i do think a 2.0 turbo dropped in it would be nice and i duno what tyres yet i dont not to much about them

[Peej1981]

here you go mate try this link out, helped me to decided what i wanted to go for

once you have decided then i most likely will be looking to buy them from this link as seems to be the cheapest i have found so far

You are true with the fact about why you would want to be going fast but then again i am running a G60 engine in mine just for those days when you have a silly chav who thinks he is all it 

[Adamdubz]

This is true. 

plus a turbo sounds soo nice lol

thanks for the help btw really appreciate it

[Peej1981]

True the turbo does sound nice and i have owed a few cars in my time with a turbo and this is the first time i have owned a car with a supercharger and omg it sounds sooooo good, cant really beat the noise off a supercharger when you put your foot down but then again the noise off a nice turbo with a dump valve does sound good.
Maybe that should be another thread you should set up, what sounds better turbo or supercharger 

[Adamdubz]

dump valves do sound so sick ok hear is one for you what is more fuel friendly turbo or supercharger because of the stupid fuel prices??
   

[Peej1981]

Mmm that's is difficult to say as it really depends on the way you drive the car. I really don't know on this one, I would say that they are both pritty close, I should be getting about 35 to 40mpg on a good run and I would expext the same from a turbo but like I said its how you drive it.

See another thread here too 

[Adamdubz]

fair play ok i will set a new thread up in a bit lol i am only getin like 30mpg from my 1.8 16v not even that some times ahh fml and i dont even drive hard

well like i said the porch d90's are just like those wheels, this is a set for sale on ebay at the mo http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PORSCHE-928-S-ALLOY-WHEELS-D90-911-TURBO-/160524243463?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item255ffd9207

Plus they look awsome on the mk2, there is a wide range of alloys that look good for mk2's just type these onto ebay and also type it in google and look under images. Borbet, bbs and ats

I got myself a set of ats cups for £160 off ebay, which i think look awsome on the mk2




need a refurb which i will do myself to save the penny's, just keep looking you will find the rite set.

You know those dont fit over g60 brakes dont you?
