Maybe someone has a set of 10" and would like to upgrade?
I thought about buying these for a spare set, but not sure i want to sink the money into them.
Would make a nice coffee table base for the man cave, but price for that purpose.
Where in NC are you Gene?

Good score MJ.
I have two sets of the CIII's (with 11" rears) and I love them! Hands down, best looking wheel for the 928 today. Relatively cheap too.
They are a very tight fit on most cars. I've heard they fit perfectly on the 87-89 cars. Seems the pre-S4 are bit snugger and need some "love" to get them to fit without rubbing. The 90+ cars have issues with rubbing on the inboard side due to the full insulated wheel liner. I believe GTSs are fine.
One other point, although a 295/30/18 is a closer circumference tire to our stock tires - it looks goofy. Go for a 295/35/18 and you'll be very happy.
Last tip... those 11" wheels can bend easily on pothole. Watch out. Here in Michigan it seems like every other year I have to get them straightened.
