Default Best Porsche 928 wheels + Tires 18" LIKE BRAND NEW! $1350

Mille Miglia Emotion 18X8.5 ET 52mm and 18x10 ET 64mm
front tires are 225-40-18

and rears are 265-35-18

All are Neexen Tires and have about 85-95 % tread remaining.

These wheels were bought here and transported to my house- I brought them to a professional wheel refurbisher and had all wheels reconditioned and brought to new- MAYBE they have 125 miles on them - Absolutely Perfect!

Joe in lancaster, pa zip 17601
Super rare!
Car to talk- joe 717-898-9024
NO RUBBING !! PERFECT!
Thank you!

So did you use a 21mm spacer for the rears?

Nope, I did not need it-

I did put a 10mm spacer just to widen it a bit for the look, but it didn't need it- joe

Are these the rims that stick out, about an inch, past the edge of rim?

Yes but not at the lip they do come out more in the middle- you are not driving a dump truck, and whenever I drive my nice cars I pay attention to parking- Never had an issue yet- ( why do
I feel like I shouldn't have said that)

Yeah. I like those Carrera wheels you've got better. And the front offset is a bit weak.

Yup, my friend (who is a wheel / tire reseller & 928 owner) was told these were discontinued due to owner complaints of excessive curb damage.
2nd complaint was photos on the website did not really show just how far these stick out past he fender.

He had a customer looking for a single replacement. Luckily they still had a few in the ware house.

Yeah sorry i was gonna say WORST WHEELS

Good luck at $1300, you can pick up factory Carrera S 19" wheels with 19" rubber on them for less than that.

Price adjustment maybe in order here......

I was thinking $900-$1000 might be a better range.

But Ryan, there are some people who would prefer 18" over 19s. Myself being one of them.
