Which 5-lug wheels looks most like Turbo S CL wheels?
Hi everyone,
I love the look of the Turbo S CL wheels, but my 991.1 CS is using 5 lug, so I'm currently looking for alternatives in 5-lug. Any recommendations?
My search has given me these candidates:
Porsche Turbo S CL
Victor Innsbruck Wheels
HRE FF01 FlowForm

I had a set of Innsbrucks on a 986 Boxster S back in the day. They were literally $1500 delivered for 4! Big mistake. The offsets, the over-shininess, both made them look like wrong-sized cheap aftermarket wheels. Looked great in the ads, not so much on the car.
I also bought a Turbo in the mid-2000s from a guy who had switched to another version of Victors, a 5-spoke in 19". Ugly and crappy. I still have them in a spare garage, even though I sold the car long ago. They are shod with a set of now rock-hard Pilot Sport 2s. I'll make you a hell of a deal. They don't just LOOK like Turbo wheels -- they actually CAME OFF OF a Turbo, giving them an air of authenticity your HREs could never achieve.

You could always do a center lock conversion and buy OE turbo wheels. It's not the cheapest option, but it would suit your needs.

This. I've been shopping wheels myself and have narrowed it down to this and a couple of fully forged options at 2+ times the cost. I even photoshopped the color scheme to emulate a Fuchs look. Note you'd have to have it painted on your own to get the look.
