Default Cup 1's / Cup2's / What are these?

Hi

My cabriolet originally came with these wheels.
Could anyone tell me what type of wheel they are known as, and are they what the car originally came with.

Has anyone also got pictures of cup 1 and cup 2 wheels so that I can see the difference.

cheers lee

You may want to skim this thread = Pictures of your wheels

FWIW, I prefer Cup 1's on 964's. I have them on both of mine.

The wheels on your car look like 16 inch Mk1 Boxster wheels, but i stand to be corrected!!

964's originally came with D90's and then Cup 1's from around 1991 I think?

Cup 2's were standard fittment on the 993.

The wheels in the above photo are the called Design 93 - they are 16" wheels that came on some early 993s. I personally love the way they look, too bad they don't come in 17" sizes so you can have more tire choices with them.

As a reference, here's a Cup I:



And a Cup II:



Hope this helps!

Lee,

The ones on the cab in the pic above are neither 1's or 2's.

Another make ..but with Porsche crests perhaps?
