Default porsche bbs wheels

porsche bbs 18" wheels for boxster, 928 or others.
includes michelin n1 tires. front tires size 225 40 18 with about 50% tread. rear tires size 265 35 18 with minimal tread remaining. includes center caps.
$1250 + shipping
jeff 503 780 1601

front 7 1/2" offset 50mm
rear 9" offset 52
they have 993 part numbers on the back so i am pretty sure they fit 993.

came off a boxster with 30,000 miles so they are not like new but they are in very nice condition

Try your local Porsche dealer. They usually have some great deals on "take-offs" from new cars. Locally a set of four, with tires is often under $1000.00.

Still got these in storage Kevin.

Porsche Dyno Wheels

They're 17x7 and 8.5
Most probably nowhere near wide enough for you.
Don't even want to know what 245 tires (max width on 8.5 rims, I think) will do on your car.
$400 if you need them just to roll you car around.

Hey Kevin, or anyone else interested,

I've decided to sell the original 17in 993 cups that came on my GTS.
No tire pressure sensors. I'm keeping the center caps.
Asking $1000 with the Michelin Pilot Sports (older but lots of tread) plus shipping.

Are you sure you don't want to stick those up in the rafters and hang onto them?

Kevin, check out a site called "wheels & caps" (no affiliation) on Fleabay. You can snag a set of NEW 18" x 8" & 10" Carrera 5-spokes for $499 or 19" x 8" & 11" sport for $649. plus $80 freight. That is a HOT everyday price deal! I just found this site when I looked up "wheels-porsche". the right offsets too!
