Question 16" Porsche wheel indecision

Help.
I've got stock sized wings, 944 brakes all round & I think I want to stick to 16" (at most) rims.
BUT I can't decide what rims to choose.
The work in progress is currently held off the ground with a pair of early ET 50 6 x 16" Boxster 'split spoke' rims & a pair of ET 52 6 x 16" Design 90s. Shell is '51 split.
I realise that this is a very subjective question but I'm doing my nut. - What rims would you suggest?

Martin

Here's what I would do:

Get a picture of your car, or a similar one, and photoshop the wheels under it.
It won't be perfect, but it will give you an idea what it will look like....

boxter rims are for girls you need some sexy 17 inch wheels like my splendid carrera cabriolet wheels
