Those are not factory wheels, they are Mille Miglia replicas and full sets of 4 typically sell for about $500.

Sounds like a pair and not a set.

That was my point. The price is high for just a pair of replicas because full sets can be had around $500. If someone thought these were actual Cup 1 then they might think $700 for the pair is a bargain.

This is a valuable info, thank you.
Shipping cost will be too high for the price of replica wheels.
These wheels are removed from sale

How much are the original wheels CUP I?
I have two sets. I want to sell them.
You can board a fair price original wheels CUP I?

I think you could ask close to $2k each for the factory sets - share with the 964 crowd, they love these wheels. The 9" rears are very hard to come by these days.

Really Trev? I would have guessed the 7.5 fronts are the pricer of the set.

7.5" is an odd-ball wheel width, Jeff. It's pretty much only desirable for people who care about originality on 968's. The 964 got 7" front and 8" rear wheels so a popular upgrade is to find the 9" wheels from 968 or 964 Turbo to install on the back. 944 guys also like finding 9" wheels for the front in order to have square wheel + tire sizes. I've come to really dislike 968 7.5" wheels because of the ET65. It leaves an enormous gap between the tire and fender! 7" ET55 from the 993 looks better to me and works just fine with a 225 front tire.

I concur on the fender gap for the 7.5 fronts. Could not understand the logic of giving 1/2 inch wider wheel with a bigger offset. It actually looks worse than a 7 inch front with 55mm offset.

Raj, perhaps the 7.5 and it's offset was designed for the 928 and also "worked" on the 968. The 928 guys seem to be a lot more fussy about the front offset claiming that the proper offset is more critical on the 928 while the 968 is more forgiving where offset is concerned.
