| Post the ET or setback. The 944's have several different wheels. |

x2, they might or they might not, depending on which part number it is.
if you want some great lightweight forged porsche alloy wheels that bolt right on, no adapters or spacers required - look at the 914 2.0 liter fuchs. genuine porsche wheels, very high quality, and they are already the correct bolt pattern and offset for a beetle.

If you are looking at cookie cutters or Fuchs, they won't even fit without the adapter. (providing you re-drilled the drums).
Phone dials come in different offsets. What wheels (and offset) are you planning on using?
