"A pity that there was not more information about wheel weights apart from Veloce and BBS"

This what you are looking for? Weight in kgs per wheel, excluding spacers.

OEM 17" Wheel Weight

AvoyVoda, thanks for the useful chart on the 18s. Does anyone know what the OEM 17" wheels weigh? I did a search and couldn't find it.

Simpateko,

Looks good!

Do you know what the offsets are? Are those off a 996 Turbo or GT3? I believe the GT3 rears are 12inches wide, did you have to roll the fenders at all?

yes
2005 gt3 wheels, gt3 have narrow body offsets.
rears are 11x18 63 offset
295 30 tires.
they fit fine at stock ride height but i
had to roll the fender lips after lowering the car.
enjoy!

Jeff:

It looks really sharp! IMHO, the GT3 wheels look better on a dark color car like yours. It's amazing the difference in look after you lowered it too.

Congrats!

But it's that silly smile on your face, everytime you walk to your car, that makes everything worth it.

The street wheel, or the track one?

Simpateko---the car looks much more menacing now that it's lower. Can you take/post a three quarter front and rear view? I always thought 11's were too wide for a 993 NB but those are looking good.
