Porsche 996 Turbo SportTechno wheels
Pelikans, anybody knows?
I have SportTechno wheels on my 2002 996 Turbo. You love them or you want original, original. Now i believe this was an optional wheel maybe i am wrong. Please see pictures and let me know what you think, thanks. Oh btw if somebody has a front wheel or both i am interested as one has curb damage.

I can't stand directional wheels on any car where the manufacturer was too lazy to make right and left sides.
Nice looking wheel, but on one side of the car, it's always on backwards. Not for me. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk |

My C4S has them, they were a pretty pricey option. I picked up a set of hollow spoke turbo wheels for winter tires so have both :-)

The PO had painted them to match the body color which I hated. I had a local wheel restoration place remove the color and paint them back as close to factory silver as we could get for $300.
