BBS 17" wheels onto the type3 Squareback
 
Since my bug is not going anywhere and its rims have still M+S (winter) tires on them, I thought I'd try them on the square: They fitted :eek:

Since these are 7+8,5J x 17, that was very much a (pleasant) surprise :D
Damn, it almost immediately looks a GL now :laugh:

Thought, I'd share my joy.

Walter

Hi Jason,
They are porsche Boxster wheels, made for porsche by BBS. Both manufactorers logos are stamped on the back of the wheels :D
ET front is 55, rear wheels have ET50.

Tnx,
Walter

The square has been sold; those wheels are now on my 412S, in case you missed out on that:

What is the offset on those wheels? I'm looking for the same dimension for my Type-34 Ghia too.

You wouldn't have the picture of the Square with those wheels anywhere?

I'm new on here but am trying to get ideas for my squareback

Oops... Sorry.. I guess it must have been too late when I read this thread... :o

Thanks! :D

Hi Wally

Not saying anything bad about your Type 3, but "wheels make the car" It just looks so right with those wheels./

Steve

Wally May 20th 2006 10:18

You're totally right Steve. Like I wrote earlier, I sold the car, so no worries ;)

Oddly enough, all of my cars (1303, 412) I have put these wheels under, looked 100% better with them...

GL-Aussielooker May 20th 2006 11:47

very cool. Those look awsome. Thanks
