Quick question about some cup 1 reps
I'm looking at a set of Borbet cup 1 replicas. 17x7, and 17x9. It's wearing tires 225/45 in front and 255/40 in rear. They were used on an 89 911 not a 964. Will these fit my 1992 964?

52/47 offsets are for 964. They will fit perfectly fine. But, the Borbet replicas are very heavy. The Mille Miglia replicas are much lighter and only 1-2lbs from the factory weights. Sorry to say, you'll notice the Borbet weight even in day-to-day driving.

Are the Borbet marked Borbet?

MM Fronts are 2kg each heavier than factory, and the rears 1KG each, not an insubstantial amount, especially when factory cup 1s arent exactly particualrly lightweight to start with

You weighed them yourself? I weigh the MM at 24.6/27.0lbs for 7.5/9. Factory is supposedly 23.4/26.0. Borbet 9" are 29lbs. I haven't weighed the Borbet fronts, but I weighed some Borbet twist replicas in 7.5/9 at a whopping 28.2/30.2.
Can you tell us where you get your numbers? Agreed though, none if the cup1 options are in anyway light.

I haven't heard back from the seller yet regarding the offsets. I have a set of mille miglia reps that I should just refinish I guess. I don't think the extra weight would bother me much, although I do have 16 inch cup wheels on now that are pretty light so maybe I will see a difference.
