MM doesn't make that wheel anymore. I had a set in triple-chrome I sold. They were called 993 Cups on the old MM and Tirerack websites, not Cup 1 or 2. Just for info. That's a great price, I sold mine for $600 w/ good tires and that was cheap.

My mistake! They are Cup 2 replicas. I just dug out the PO's original receipt: "993 Cup 2a"

many, many thanks for listing the weight on the ebay listing--I'm a weight freak and it's so hard to get people to weigh their friggin' wheels.

I weigh wheels and tires and keep a record. I'm not a weight freak, but I am hypersensitive to the argument that replicas are too heavy. The OEM version of these wheels is 5 lbs. lighter, but you can't use OEM on an '86 951 without spacers. Spacers (1" and 1-1/4") probably weigh 2.5 lbs each. So OEM wheels only save 2.5 lbs per corner. Considering the inconvenience and ridiculous cost of spacers, replicas make sense for us '86 guys.
