I need some expert information these wheels came with the car. I don’t know what they are? I purchased some Tramonts prior to seeing these 1/2 way cleaned up they don’t Look too bad.

[QUOTE=WheelsB;17923836]
The sizes on my TechArt Daytona's are 18"x8.5" ET 40 and 18"x11" ET 52.

We run up to a 9" wide and 12" wide on 993 WB's (like on the car below) so the TechArt's are not too aggressive for the 993 WB.

[/QUOTE Are those available for NB? Very very nice.

I’ll buy your trainings if you’re considering sticking with these. Let me know.

But I don't understand why the centers are mounted the other way round, showing their flange in the outer side kf the wheel (as tbey were supposed to be on the 964s) while on the 993 the flange should be invisible, or let's say placed in the inner side of the wheel.

Different centers. They are machined in both styles based on offset requirements. E88's are available this way as well.
