Default Porsche Classic BBS 17" - Pic Request

Anyone have any Porsche Classic BBS wheels on their 964s (see image attached)? Would love to see how they look on.

I had a set on my NB 993; car gone but still have the wheels if anyone's interested. One of my favorites.

Nice looking rims Steve.

Are they forged or cast, and any weight savings over the Cup 1s?

Sport Classics are cast
From memory the only factory forged wheels from 964 era were the 16" clubsport wheels, similar in looks to the D90's.


...and the 16" slotted wheels shown on the 964 owned by GeorgeK shown in this thread...

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong...

Mine are 8.5" front (50 offset) and 9" rear (55 offset). Perfect fit; no spacers required.
I liked the wider front widths

So thats what the wheels on my car are. Never knew for sure.
Were they an after market addition or did they sometimes come with the factory produced car ?

I have no idea of what widths are on my car. Type info is,
Front 205/50
Rear 255/40
which might make them to be 8" and 10" ??? Does that work ?

Am I right that they only came as a 17" height ?

Mine are originally off a boxster so are 7 ET55 and 8.5 ET50. They take the same tyres as a 964 has as standard. No issues with fitment.
