I think go for Porsche 968 or Cup Style rims.I like the idea of combining the Pork rind rimmage with the CQ.

Look like 5 stud to me, i guess its a hub swap? Had to click the HQ button & turn up the brightness to see it tho.... not sure on size.. there looks like another video too.

you could always step outside the box a bit...

But, a set of these

then a set of these! (and they're in Shropshire!)
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/16-inch-Sparco...3A1|240%3A1318



or just type in 5 x 114.3 into eBay and you get a whole new range to look at!

Even Foose do some for 5 x 114.3

Definitely needs to be something more on the angular side. While I love the Porsche Cup wheels on a Porsche or RS2, the Type 85 shape is just too square for their '90s roundness IMHO.

Something with a lip looks brilliant too. I really like the 6x15 Ronal R8s on mine, but the 7" wide version with a lip (as on 20vcqdriver's car) looks even better.

Now that I look at the second Youtube link, I 'm not sure what the wheels are, maybe an old style ATS 12 spoke which looks alot like the deep dish R8's with a lug center cap. Maybe he changed them between vids.

I wish the resolution was better.

u might be on to something there!

And i may just have stumbled on the perfect wheel... they are 195/50 16". & I'm really hoping they will fit! but i haven't seen them yet, or got any more details of ET offset... so watch this space .
