Would there be interest in these wheels? ITALY MADE

Thinking of bringing in wheels like this:

18x8 et. 50 and 18x10 et. 65, manufactured in Italy,

Like to get you input. (please look at the style, not the stamp on the wheel)

If I had a 993 or newer, yes.

Italian made.

I have a 993 but no thanks. Too close to stock, I'd just buy stockers if this is what I'd like. I think many probably think the same. Thes type wheels off a Porsche are reasonably cheap.

I like them and they are very hard to find in the narrow body offsets you are listing. Post this over on the 996 forums if you already haven't. Someone was selling them in the 05-08 time frame on ebay along with the Sport Classic II replicas. I remember looking.

they are "turbo twists"

supposedly made by the company that makes the oem for Porsche

I had a set just like you are considering - cost about $2000 new

- no market for them - like new - i sold 'em for $500 last year

Thanks guys,

I have the ability to bring some wheels OEM style from Italy and I'm trying to work on a deal to bring something in that everyone might want.

I'm able to get them in OEM off-sets from the CUP VERSION.

I can bring these in 17x7.5 (et-52) and 17x9 (et-47)


I can bring these in 18x8 (50) and 18x10 (65) or even 17" if needed.


Let me know your thoughts...
