Default FS: refinished 18" Gemballa Lemans wheels

For sale is a newly refinished, staggered set of 18" Gemballa Lemans wheels - zero curb damage or rash. These look like deeper dish Cup 2 wheels in 18" diameter.

fronts: 8" x 18" ET47
rears: 9" x 18" ET52

Fitment: all narrow bodied 964 and 993; widebodies may need rear spacers

They are mounted on Potenza tires that I am including for FREE; three of them are date coded 2010, one is 2009. The wheels have NOT been mounted on a car since they were refinished. No center caps included.

Original asking price: $1675 USD o.b.o. -- as of May 25, price dropped to $1475 USD, as of May 27, reduced to $1250 USD. Buyer to arrange shipping or local pickup - the wheels are in Vancouver, Canada. I can deliver the wheels to a UPS or Fedex store and the buyer can arrange shipping from there, at buyer's expense.

Very nice wheels - they strike me as a combination of 993 RS and Cup wheel styles.

Were the wheels refinished with the tires still mounted?

Thanks, Andreas.

I bought them from a RL/Pelicanparts member (who's a frequent seller in both forums) a year ago in their current condition. I was told they were refinished unmounted and tires he had available at the time were remounted.

I was planning to use these on my 993 but have since decided to stay stock with my Cup 2 17" wheels, so although I've owned these for a year, I've never used them.

At their current price, these would sell for much less than what I paid for them but I need my storage space back and I figure my 993 has appreciated a lot more in the last 12 months than the loss I'll take on these wheels. For comparison's sake, there are two sets on ebay now asking $2000 and $2300, and a pair of 11"s asking $1470.

Nice wheels. IMHO, these widths are definitely better suited for a 964 NB or Boxster/Cayman. GLWS! That price is certainly low enough.

I love the look of the LeMans wheels. According to Gemballa's catalog, the 18x9's are front wheels as well. They should still fit a 265 width tire so should work on the rear.
