I started with a set of bbs rs199, originally 17x8 et32
The centres have been redrilled to 5/130 and widened centerbore to fit Porsche.
I used original bbs rs 18" outer lips which uses the 17" face in the dimensions 18x1" & 18x2.5"
Custom made step up inner barrels in dimensions 18x7.75" up front and 18x8.75" in rear.
Final specs: 18x9.25" & 18x11.75
Better picture.

Thanks,

Bence - I just learned of the E87 today as I want to retain 17" wheels for my car, rather than go to 18". Your wheels look just perfect. Would you mind sharing the weight, width, offset and tire size? Which vendor did you purchase from? I applaud your restraint from going bigger!

ED - thank you for sharing! I have a green car with Cup II wheels and was thinking of paining them the same color. Is this Weiss Gold the color of the new GT2 RS rims? Great choice.

What wheel and tire size are you running? Offset? Spacers?

I have an identical 95 C2 running 18" hollow spoke turbo twists, but love how beefy this setup looks! Keep it up

Default Turbo Twisties



Just threw on a set of 18" hollow spoke 993 turbo twists with some Michelin Pilot Sport 4S's. Excuse the dirty car and the poor picture quality
