I got the set including 4 new Porsche centercaps for $1709. I didn't pay any shipping because Veloce wheels USA is located about 30 minutes from me. I met the owner George and he is a great guy and a pleasure to deal with. If you are located in the US give him a shout a velocewheelsusa@gmail.com There is even a link from the velocewheels.com website.

Look good, have you noticed any performance differences?
Do the new wheels affect how the car corners, ect???

The only thing I have noticed is that the car grips and does not understeer ( on the street ) at all. That would be attributed to the Dunlop Direzza Star Spec tires I actually prefer them to the Bridgestone RE-11's I was running last year on my BMW. The tires on the OE wheels were about 7 years old and were completely shot, so the new setup is amazing.

I have fittd several pairs of veloce to customers cars in Australia and feedback is very good. many have been tracked and no issues with strength. They are a great look.
My only comment is the sooner you drop the car another 1.5" the better. It will look sensational then.
If you are going HR, I would also recommend the 'red' 964 turbo springs as it will still ride really well but handle much better.

Those are not Alesios. Those are factory 993 GT2 wheels (if they are real...there are several fakes, even with the laser etching). they are the wide version of 993RS wheels. Take my word for it.

They wouldn't be a deal at $2500. they would be a steal. those would be worth at least $5k in ok shape. much more if restored by the right guy.
