Hey guys, I've had my 997.2 since 2011 and the only upgrade that I have done was to install some new clear markers on the corners of my front fenders.

My original wheels are in great shape but since I set my eyes on the 997.2 Turbo 11 Wheel by Otto Fuchs that were standard issue on the Turbo 997.2 they caught my eye and I was on a mission to find a used set in near perfect condiiton. I was a bit sceptical about the fitment as all that I found for sale over 2 yrs were "wide body offsets" only. It wasn't until I read a thread "The Diary of a 2011 Carrara White 997.2 C2 PDK" by ElectricChair that confirmed the fitment.

It took a while looking from LA to PEI but then my pal MYW gave me a heads up about some wheels for sale in Toronto. I almost gave up on finding these wheels but I made the trip and bought them that day.

I changed the tires from my OEM rears 295's to the new wheel as a 305's rear tire that came on the Turbo 11 wheel stuck out a little too much for my liking.
Special thanks to Michael

offer 1900 shipped to toronto. the tires are from 2007-2011 so are pretty much worthless (or have him remove them so that shipping will cost even less).

seller seems like a decent guy but not sure if the brightest seller as that ad has been running for 24 months (if not even longer) on kjijii.

the wheels came off a genuine turbo so are wide body fitment for both front and rear (8.5+56, 11+51), identical to neil's set above, the are in very good condition with only a few blemishes. for a typical moderately driven 911 i would assume the condition is fine.

I always loved those wheels, they look great in any Porsche model, on the Cayenne they look terrific.
I never liked the wheels of the 997.1 Turbo.

IMHO I personally like your original 5 spoke sport Carrera rims vs. Those turbo rims. There are just too many replica rims of those turbos. The original rims are clean and classic 5 spokers....hope you didn't sell them🍻

Thanks guys, I'm really **** about the condition of used wheels, I got lucky with this set. They're a darker rim and hide the brake dust pretty good

I intend to keep the original OEM wheels and center caps for the next owner

Nice rims , I have the old set of turbo rims on mine which i like as well. Just ordered 8 and 15 mill spacers for this summer

^ Nice wheels too. I gained 16mm out on the rears, with 7mm out and 5mm in on the fronts as they are 8.5" wide

Also found out today that Costco carries the new Michelin Pilot 4S. 295 / 235 full set $ 1778.80 including tax. Install extra.

+1.
new ones look good but, I like the old ones better. All that matters is what you like. Enjoy.
