The Official Cup 1 Photo thread

Hey I have those same tires! But not on cups, on my boxster wheels. Just OK in the summer but good in the rain.
For 7s and 9s in matte black, I'd guess between $600 and $900? But I don't know for sure, they are one of the only type of wheels I've never actually owned.

Note that 924 Turbo has no rear seat belts, odd. I'm going to assume they were not allowed to be sold in the US that way.

I remembered this thread after installing snowtires on 16 inch narrowspoke cupwheels on my 993. Looks kind of cool in an oldschool way. About the "Cup 1" and "Cup 2" thing. The official Porsche names are "16 inch Cup Design Wheel", "16 Cup Design 93 Wheel", "17 inch Cup Design Wheel" (aka Cup 1) and "17 inch Cup Design 93 Wheel" (aka Cup 2). Here's an official Porsche doc in German. (OT: that 17 inch dyno wheel is ugly, has anyone seen that on a car? I've only seen something similar on Volvos.)
Finally, I am surprised that no one has said yet that they like any cups as long as they're D-cups!
Best regards, Valerian

Valerian, if I had started with the 'official' Porsche names for Cup 1 and Cup 2's no one would have responded-just like 'Big Reds' 'phone dials' 'gas burners' 'lobster claws', often the unofficial name becomes the vernacular. Advertisers on Ebay, here, Pelican, all use Cup 1/2 because they know that's what's most commonly used. Thanks much for sharing your chart, I don't think I've ever seen that before.
