ET27.3 including adaptors at the front on a 7J rim and ET22.3 on an 8J rim and adaptors at the back.

Original offset is ET52.

Love it, looks really good.   :cool: :cool: :cool:

tbh I would be reluctant to spray them just after opinions :P So I guess I'll be getting them polished up :)

I'm kinda new to all the wheel jargon, would all 928's be the same offset or would I need to find out what they are? atm the mate im getting them off has them on his mk1 he just bought with massive spacers/adapters on them :P
20vt conversion, sig pic coming soon!

You need to find out the offset so you can work out the adaptors needed.

Was going to say you will NEED adaptors, Which can be the most costly part of buying wheels with the wrong PCD for your car!
928's are Sick! But the best Porsche wheel for me are D90's because i have them LOL but Silver Roses are an extremely close second!<3

I reckon a set of 928s would look pretty awesome in black but as long as you retain the original porsche emblem and colours!
I hate it when the emblem is sprayed :( it loses character!!

And yeahhh on the inside next to the rim width (should be engraved)
 MK2 VR y0!
