Default Wheel identification please!

I have noticed all kinds of wheels on this forum for 993 but am yet to see the ones I have on my car. 17" Are these even P-Car OEM wheels? If so, which vehicle did they originally com on as I dont think they are stock 1995 OEM wheels.

That's a factory C4 wheel from a 996 I believe.

HMM,

Didnt think those would fit a 993?

If this is the case, are they better or worse that the stock 993?

Looks function and so on!

What are the offsets on those wheels? Should be expressed as an ET number stamped/cast on the wheel somewhere.

they were 17s that came on the 996 C4 IIRC.

Edit: found an auction that lists the sizes.
7 and 9s by 17.

Late to the party...
Max is correct; same in size/offset as the 993 17" Cups. I have these rims as my track rims and I've had them for maybe 3 years now and it's funny I have NEVER seen them anywhere else. I think they look nice, IMHO.

One of our members (forget his screenname) has those exact wheels on his riviera blue narrow-body coupe.
