Default Sport Technos

Just a heads up for anyone interested, Suncoast has a set of new Sport Technos for $2400. In a world of ludicrously priced Carrera S and Carrera Classic wheels ($2k for damaged used sets on ebay) that seems a bargain. I'd have bought it as a second set but unfortunately it's a wide body fitment. Someone's going to get lucky with a set of my favorite 991 wheels!

Someone with a GTS grab these...I think the combo would be unbeatable!

Cheers,
NF

I really hope they bring the SportTechnos back on the 992.

I just bought a used 2014 C2S cab with Sport Techno's. That is a great price on a great wheel. If I was going to drive the car in the cold I would definitely pick up another set and mount some winter tires on them.

My '15 Carrera came with Sport Technos. I wasn't sure about them in photos, but in person they exude power but with class. They are also very easy to clean, and, in my experience, don't get as dirty between washes as other Porsche OEM wheels. Highly recommended.

Maybe they're on sale because they look like they're angled forward on the driver's side and backwards on the passenger's side.

This is true but I have not found a way to see both sides at the same time except in a reflection and then they look the same. I love the ST wheels. They are (in widebody offsets) exactly the same as the 50th anniversary Fuchs! Just saying. I have the inner black painted ones and they are gorgeous imho!

Rob that is a great looking car. The two tone wheels go well with the convertible top.

Cheers,

Thats normal with asymetrical wheels. One side is backwards from the other when mounted on the car. Kinda seems odd, but common. BTW, the point at the bottom of the Porsche crest in the wheel center cap is supposed be pointing toward the air valve stem. Just had to re-aim mine, now I can find my valve stem quicker, I guess.
