hi Joe,
actually the real speedline wheels that came on both the 964 3.6ltr turbo and both the 968 turbo and turbo rs come in either a painted center or as an option speedline polish the wheels. chrome is just plain nasty and speedline have more class then that.

You might want to consider Speedline Alesio's. I recently put a set on my cabriolet.
I like them a lot.

bending is the easy part b/c you can always get barrels for them. kinesis quit making the super cups for a reason. those cast centers aren't as strong as they should be. they're known for breaking apart and cracking. and it's really a shame b/c it's without a doubt my favorite wheel, but i'm afraid of them for that reason. i'd try and find a set of speedlines or rh replica 3.6 wheels.

ps please don't think i'm bashing super cups b/c i know there are quite a few sets on rennlist and like i said i love them. i'm just letting you know why i chose not to purchase them.

He is. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a set of Speedlines.

So, where can one go to buy new Speedlines? I've been searching and I'm getting lots of useless crap.
