Default 951 Wheel Guys

Need a bit of advice on the whole wheel deal.
I have a nice pair of these I got cheap: 18" turbo twist OA Width 11" outside
Part # 993.352.140.04. They have some old 275 Contis on them but I have a decent set of 265 and 235 18" took off the Cayman recently.
So, I'm thinking these will work out back but I need to figure out what the matching part number wheel for up front would be.
Figured since going on the 951 and seen a lot of these on our cars someone on here has this already sorted out.

The part number you listed, 993.362.140.04, is for the solid spoke Turbo Look I wheel, 18x10” et65.

A matching front would be either 993.362.134.06, (18x7.5 et50) or 993.362.136.01, (18x8” et52). If you have the early offset ’86 suspension, spacers will be required all around.

Good luck in your search.

^ that's what I was looking for. Knew someone on here had it. Figured on the spacers for sure. Also sort of toying with the idea maybe some track tires and back and forth between the Cayman and 951. Like choices. Now to find their two new friends....

I have a set of 7.5 x 18 turbo twist hollow front wheels for sale that would be good match for your rears.
Since they are hollow, these fronts wheels weigh only 18.5lbs each. Selling for $275+shipping. Check my listing in the for sale section. P/N 993.362.134.05.

I've got an 86 951, and I have a set of 996 18" wheels I was going
to use.

I've got a set of 21mm spacers. However how long should
the lug bolts that I need to buy?

thx.

Mike, looks like you’ll need the 66mm studs for the back wheel.

Are your 996 back wheels et45? What front wheel, width and et do you have?

Not entirely sure

They were 225 on front and 265 rears

I haven't measured ET on them
Are they stamped?

Thx

Numbers, both dimensions and part numbers should be cast on the wheel spoke backside.

How to identify an original Porsche rim?
