I purchased a set of Cup2 wheels in 7.5x17 and 9x17 and had them professionally redone. I then threw on a brand new set of Continentals. The car has never been run with this setup so it is all new.
I have $2150 into the complete set. Purchased wheels for $750, had them refinished for $600 and have close $800 for new Continentals with mounting and balancing. Asking $2000. Will post some pics later.

DId you sell your wheel?

RajDatta

no I did not. new price is $1650. Still available.

Larry Weinstein

Thank you. Reasonable price.

I'm buying a '94 with the 030 code and trying to figure out whether the 17" wheels would have been included with that. The wheels that are on the car now are 16". This site seems to imply the wheels would have been 17s.

Do you have the Porsche part numbers for your wheels? Definitely interested but wondering about the cost of shipping to Ohio.

odurandina

awesome deal.

RajDatta

These are original M030 wheels. No funny business here..

jeff968

Larry,
17" wheels would be included with the M030 sport suspension option. The question is, Cup1s or Cup2s? and for a 94 it could be either. Post the last 3 digits of your VIN and I'll tell you which was correct for your 94.

Car arrived and it has 17 inch wheels so they are originals. Two are scuffed though so I either could repair or replace.

The car is pictured in the original ebay ad. Perhaps you can tell me wheels these are-I or II. Thanks Larry

From what I see online, I assume they're cup 2s .... same as what you're selling?

jeff968

Very nice, those are Cup2s and are correct for a late 94. Some more production details on your car for you:

If you are a PCA member be sure to join the 968 register. I publish about 4 E-newsletters a year.

Up to you but we've had some discussion on what these cars are currently selling for. i can see you didn't buy it on eBay. Curious what you spent on the car.

Good luck!
Jeff

Thank you for the information.

No, I purchased it directly from the dealer. My second 968 - the first was a 1994 cab that was t-boned by a 16 year-old driver at 55 mph - while I was pulling into my drive. The car flipped onto the top. BUT ... the windshield structure held and I wasn't injured. It was six years ago and the car only had 45k miles.
This one is very clean. No sign on any accidents and only touch-up work on the bumper. Plan is to keep it stock and use occasionally on the track (I'm a PCA instructor).

Larry Weinstein

Raj,
Definitely interested in your wheels. Would you contact me at robinlarry@aol.com?

nibn968

Hi

I am sure these have been sold by now but I thought I would ask. I am looking for the 17in 7.5 and 9 Cup 2 wheels for my 968. Are these still available or does anyone know where I may source them?

Thanks

RajDatta

I sold mine to Larry a few months back.

Larry Weinstein

I sold my 968 earlier this week with the original wheels that came with it so this set (with like new Continental Extreme tires) from Raj is for sale again. I only put a few hundred miles on them.

They are available for $1500. I'm located in Yellow Springs, Ohio ... close to Dayton. For shipping, I can box them and bring them to a local UPS Store unless you are close enough to pick them up.
