Does anyone have a picture of a 993 with C2 Turbo (aka Cup 1) wheels? Like these:





Thanks!

Hi John,

Try the Tirerack's website, where you can model various wheels on 993s (and other cars):

The Tirerack carries a Mille Miglia that looks a lot like the C2 Turbo wheel (for illustrative purposes).

Dare we ask why John???

Randall, I've been playing with the Tire Rack site and with the dark colored car and the small resolution it's pretty hard for me to get a good sense of how the car looks with any of their wheels. Real life pictures seem to be more, well, "real" to me.

E.J., of course you can't ask. But if you must know, I'm just curious. IMHO the C2 Turbo/Cup 1 wheels look very good on the 964, but I haven't seen any on a 993 in real life yet.

In case I do get 17s for the street, I like wider wheels. My Cup Car had 8x17's (with 235s) and 9.5x17's (with 255s) on it, something that can't be replicated (wheel-wise) with other wheels I've found at Wheel Enhancement.

Yeah, while I suppose it's better than nothing, I was thinking the same thing.
