I wonder, how practical are 20-ish year old magnesium wheels for use on the street? Will they hold up? If they do, they seem to demand a bit more power, with the increased stagger. Unless of course you're just cruising on the highway, in which case the directional stability might be nice. Either way, very cool wheels.

Very tempting

A lot of 964RS guys apparently keep them in the garage, using regular Cup 1's for driving, bringing out the mags for events. They do need to be crack tested if used.

Thanks for heads up.

You sure? I had an email exchange with them and thought there was a lip differential front to rear...

Lip depth is different front to rear...rear deeper by 3/4". The lip itself is slightly wider on the rear wheel, then slopes inward at a flatter angle to where it meets the spokes, giving additional increased depth. Very perceptible in person - front and rear wheels are not the same.

traum, is that 951 pearl white?
