Open Road

Yes yes, beat to death. I just need close enough offsets + availability + decent price.

I need new tires. My S4 manhole covers were chromed at some point and beyond saving.

I want to move to a 17" wheel for better tire options. Are the 996 turbo twist wheels my best/only option?

Screw it $660. Turbo twists are sorta fugly but it is what it is.

The Cup I and Cup II wheels were on GTS's. They are 17", and 7.5" front with proper et65 offset as well as 9" rear and correct offset. There was also a Cup II wheel in 17" with 8" width and et70 that were on VERY FEW GTS's as OE, and were on a few 911's as rear 'winter' wheels. They are more common in Europe than US. They are excellent on the front if you'd like a wider tire.

The Cup II are my favorite wheels.

However, I can't justify trying to hunt them down. The 996 turbo twists are close enough.

How about MY02s from a 996?

I've got Cup 1's on my 84 Euro (the Stepson). They look great, are not expensive, and are worth finding.

Last set I sold in U/K £1400 in need of refurb

A story in three images.

Still not a fan of the turbo twist on the 928.

However, they were relatively affordable so I cared less when they arrived distastefully damaged by the fedex idiots.

I don't think those look bad on our cars, the actual turbo twist wheels on the other hand...

AHhhh, but the hollow spoke twists are a great unsprung weight reduction wheel.

I do like the turbo twist look on our cars. My favorite tough are the Cup 1s, which is what I run with. The Mille Miglas are very good wheels, and a lot less than the Porsche version, for essentially the same thing.

What are the offsets like? I looked the reproductions but they didn't seem right for the 928.
