Default WTB: 17" x 7.5" Cup II wheels

Prefer just the pair with no tires but willing to buy a full set with or without tires if necessary. Please PM if you have of know of a set for sale. Thanks!

Thanks Tony. I've already got a set of 7" and 9" Cup II but looking for the 7.5" front wheels.

What do you think a pair of these are worth? Reason I ask, I've chased 8" ET 70s a few times and the economics of that upgrade ultimately turn on what someone would pay for a nice pair of 7.5" ET65s ... these are a special fitment for late '94 and '95 928 GTS, don't think they were used on any other model, so can't be many out there ...

I believe they were used on the front of late model 968's as well. Probably as rare as the Cup 2 8" et 70 winter wheels for the 993.

Good luck finding the 7.5" Cup II! Rare as hens teeth!

I think you can get the 8" ET70 out of Germany for $600 each!

Try looking in Europe. I found a set of et65 7.5" cup IIs immediately when I started looking for them this winter. I think I paid $200 for the set. I also found the 8" et70s.

And yes, having the correct offset IS worth it! :-)

I have a pair of 7.5" x 17" et65mm that I will part with. Currently mounted on tires, but I can pay someone to dismount. In good condition, I can take some pictures .....$325 and you pay the shipping.

Somebody in SC got a great deal on that set of 7.5's!!!

Tom - better not hold your breath for that price in 8" ones to come along. Last 2 sets I "found" and sold were nearly that price each! All the wheels were true and straight, but would require refinishing to be perfect in appearance.

I actually have one more of the 8" et 70 Cup II wheels that was refurbished by a Porsche dealer, so perfect in appearance, as well as straight and true. Whenever I come across another one, I'll have a full set (or - would sell this one at a the right price).

Gary, when you get a pair of 8s together maybe we can work a deal for my 7.5s ...
