Default Time for new wheels!! For the 91 965.

I've been browsing the internet for any alternative wheels to the speedlines!

Saw the Kinesis supercups but are no longer available.
Are there other options in the <$2k range

Looking for 19" but will consider 18"

I have a black/black 91 965.

Please point me in the right direction.
Should be ordering the H&R/Bilstein HD's suspension setup.

TIA
Please PM if you have something interesting...

19s would be too big on a 964 IMO.

I second that there is no up side to 19's. 18's are best and be careful offsets are critical.

No affiliation; you make the call about quality and fitment....

What about RUF? Their classic style looks great on both 930s and 964 Turbos.

I agree 19" is too big - but it s not my car. Part of me would love to go back to 17" to have a little more compliance on our craptastic roads here in Denver.

+1 for Speedlines

I just bought a set of Veloce 3.6 Speedline reps - IMHO they look just as good as OEM speedlines at a fraction of the cost. There are fanatics on here who will tell you different but for the price they can't be beat. PM me for more details.

For a car that will be driven a lot - this looks like a great option. They look great and are half the price of Speedlines.
