Although I'm not sure you will like my hourly rate.
And I thought unemployment was on the rise in Adelaide... Bloody Union workshop rates hey... <enter opened can of worms> :p

Thanks to SportoEvans I have these Avons now mounted on my 951 wheels.
A fair bit of frigging around to get the wheels the way I needed them, including welding up the secondary valve hole (as their original purpose is as 944 Turbo Space Saver spare wheels) and then re cutting the lug seat @ 60deg angle to suit the titanium lug nuts.
Also worth mentioning that these wheels will not take a rubber tubeless type valve but require a motorcycle style tubelesss valve.
I think the 185/70 profile sits nicely on the 5.5" rim.
