I currently have Fuchs 16 x 8&9s, and want to get a set of 17" wheels so there are better track tire choices (will be running 225/45/17 and 245/40/17).

Which 17" wheel do you think would look best on a 914? I've narrowed my choices down to:

Lindsey Racing 17" Fuchs P2
Fikse Profil 10
Kinesis K27

I'm leaning towards the Lindsey Racing 17" Fuchs because Fuchs' just look so right on a 914. But, I already have a set of 16" Fuchs so thought I'd consider something else. I'm afraid the other wheels will look too "modern" on a 914.

I don't have many good side pictures of my car, but here is one...

Whaddya think?
