I'm beginning to consider these instead of the 18" hollowspoke turbo wheels. I not sure I like the way the turbo wheels have the "twist"
in opposite directions on the drivers side than on the passengers side. I think the FM10's in a flat finish of some sort would look good...any thoughts?

Allen, Well I can give you 2 out of 3. FM 10, narrow body but no black. How about one white and one yellow. The white car may have BBS I am not sure but my car has FM 10's.

Sorry it's not black, but 2 out of 3 isn't all bad! I have many other pic's from different angles if you'd like. Send me an e-mail.

Thanks for the great pictures...I really like those wheels! I am considering the FM-10s in a "flat" type finish, instead of polished/chrome. Wheel Enhancement has them in a "Vintage Jewel Finish" that looks really good and from what I can tell from the picture, it seems to be a flat finish. I don't know that I've ever seen "anodized" finish...they are available in that finish as well.

The other thing is this...for some reason I really can't explain, I have wanted to stay with original Porsche parts on the cars, no aftermarket products. Will Porsche centercaps fit these wheels?

I sourced some nice billet aluminum center caps with inlaid cloisonne Porsche crest from Ralph Boothe Enterprises (626) 336-1396.

I believe you can get them from Wheel Enhancements as well.

That is a gorgeous car.

But then I've told you that before

I have the same color combination, but not the wheels. Every time you post a picture, I start thinking...

also not black. IMO these are the best wheels I've seen on a 993, narrow or wide.

I have the jewel finish FM-10's on our 02 Cab, the rims look great. However, I can vouch for H20NOO from prior threads, they are a PIA to keep clean. They are 3 pc. rims, and they exude dirt and grime from where they are attached. They 18" turbo twists on the C2S are no problem.


Having a black car, you can appreciate the extra length you have to go through when detailing. When clean, nothing is better. Driven over the weekend, nothing looks dirtier.

Just my .02 cents. The rims are really nice. Just thought you might want to know the downside in advance.

Allen,

My race satin anodized FM-10s are due to arrive any day. I'll post pics so that you can see the finish.

Allen

Anir...that would be great. I understand that the Vintage Jewel finish is not a smooth finish...it is more like a "frosted" finish, not smooth to the touch. I think that I will prefer the Satin Anodize finish. I'll look forward to your pictures Anir
