Hope someone can help me with this. I've got a 944 Turbo (1985) and it originally had the Fuchs style alloys in it. I wasn't too keen on these and wanted to bring it up to date a bit so found some Design 90s on E-BAY. I've put them on but they look a bit weeny and don't look like they fill the arches like the Fuchs ones.

I believe the Design 90s to be 6x16 front with 205x55x16 tyres, the rears 8x16 with 225x50x16 tyres. The tyres are the same sizes on both sets of wheels.
Have I got the right wheels, and is this normal?

Cheers

Trev.

Yes, I think you're right there Ian, what sizes should they be?

Thanks for that guys. I thought the Style 90s would bring it more up to date a bit but if it looks like it's riding round on pushbike tyres it would be better with the old ones back on. The joys of motoring....
