I love my wheels - but don't know what sort they are.
I have been told before on a facebook group, but have forgotten, can anyone help?

Heidi, if your wheels are 18inch they are called Sport Classic II.
Very attractive mesh style design for an oem wheel. They were an optional wheel for 993's, 996's, and 986's.

This may be a silly question, but can you buy, (and would it fit) the cover you have over your roof?
And if you can, what do you do with it if you need to put the roof up (English weather problems)

Thought this might be a good spot post a wtb for 18 or 19 inch wheels to fit a 95 993. Anyone have a nice set for sale? Bobby Smith porsche911dude@aol.com

Tramonts in 8.5 and 11

Didn't notice I got 11's, instead of the 10's I ordered until the tires were mounted. Sure enough, they rub quite nicely at M030 ride height. Now we see what Tramont does to make things right.

I have to say they do look good though...

Sorry for the mistake, the wheels are beautiful.
Having purchased Tramonts myself, I know that communications are in writing, and when an order is placed the buyer gets a confirmation from them showing wheel details and price. Coming with the wheels is an invoice showing these same details.
Are you saying Tramont confirmed 10" and invoiced 10" but shipped 11"?
BTW you can have rubbing with 10" depending on the ET.
