Does anyone have information as to where the stock GT3 wheels are manufactured? Shipping a set to the US and did not realize how much information they want to allow the wheels into the US. Can't seem to get the info from Porsche Canada using my VIN.

I am assuming Germany, but who knows. The funny thing is, the FedEx rep said DOT needs the exact address. This should be fun.

I am fairly sure that they are made by BBS, but they have multiple factories. Could contact them though...

Thanks for that info. Unfortunately, Porsche not really helping out with this, but cannot fault them for that.

Exact decision I made this afternoon. Figure they have no reason to open the packaging and check...lol. Worse case scenario FedEx sends them back to me.
