Late Model GTS rims same as 968?
Are the rims on the 94-95 GTS the same as on the 968 models of the same years? How much would a set of these be worth, and how easy are they to find?
Just curious...

Nicole,
The rear cup II rims for the late '94 and '95 GTS's are the same as the rear 993 cup II rims (9" X 17" with 55 et). These are pretty easy to find. Usually in the range of $300 + for a set in good, but not perfect condition. You can always buy the set of four off a 993 and re-sell the two fronts ( 7" X 17" et 55) for about $75 to 100 each.
The fronts for 928's are the HARD ones to find - 7.5 X 17 with 65 et. I do have a set of these fronts that I may be selling (I have a set of 8 X 17 et 70 I'll be putting on the front. these are SUPER rare!). BUT - the 7.5's are expensive, since they are so rare. If you want to pursue this further, drop me a PM or e-mail.
I'm not sure about the 968 rims, but doubt that the fronts are 7.5 inches wide. Might be!!! PET should indicate the dimensions and part number for both the 968 and the 928 GTS
Cheers,
Gary Knox
