I'm a big fan of stock wheels and still have my D-90's mounted with pride, but Slips2, both those wheel choices are hot. Looks great! The 996 wheels have a good look to them on a 964.

Kept my Carrera wheels and powder coated gloss black with a colored Porsche logo as the center cap. Otherwise all that I have read suggest staying with no more than 17" wheels.

Looking good. The "more civilized" 996 10-spokes definitely look classy on a 964. They look classy and mean in black. Could be your next move before getting a new set?
Plus 2 sized 996 10-spoke would look fantastic!

I was very close to going flat black on the 10-spokes this time and based on your photoshop will probably do so next iteration. Thanks again.

P964c2.......I'm wondering about any resolution on your wheels. I think very nearly like you about touring comfort on16" D90s vrs. the 17" 9j and 7js that I am on now. My cup 1s are great looking but I think I want 16" 7 and 8s.

Not sure what the weight is but these Turbo twists are hollow spoke and I like them on the car, the ride is perfect with Yoko Advans both road and track.
I have 6"&8" D90s in storage, I think the 6x8 configuration was to cure understeer but they look funny to me on a 911 and when they came out went a long way to angering the purists; new shape new wheel were just too much and it has taken all this time for the 964 to find it's fan base. The D90s just weren't butch enough.

Where did you buy your hollow turbo twists? I have a 1990 C4 with D90s on it but I love the look of the turbo twists with the full color crest. Who is the best supplier?
Maybe another member may know.

I have a set of these 17" (7"/9") OEM twists with fairly new rubber. Looking to sell inexpensively...basically just want to cover the cost of the tires. Let's say $700. Shoot me a PM if interested.

You're right ArtTwister! Especially on the Cab. Dunno why, but D90's belong on the 964 Cab. Do I have them on my Cab? Shamefully, NO. Bought car with chrome aftermarket CupI's.(7's and 8's). And, of course, we're awash in opinion here. Cheers, everyone!

the Twists were on the car when I got it, not sure where the best place to buy a set may be but I see them all the time on eBay and sometimes on Pelican.
