Very very late to the party - but here is my 993 sporting recently installed MY02 Carrera rims.

Cheers,

Alan

AWESOME!!! Thanks for posting. MY02s in dark met gray is exactly what I have planned for my Polar Silver C4S. I'm looking for a set as we speak. Now I know what it'll look like.

Thanks Louis - very happy with the way it looks at the moment.

Good luck in your search for your set.

Cheers

Here is Sportec's Web Site. They may have the offset we need via their spacer kit. I love those wheels.

So many amazing wheel/car combinations!

I haven't seen my exact combo posted, so here it is...Carrera III's on a Polar Silver coupe...looks like they were made for it.

Those big gaps between the spokes give you a great big window to the beautiful drilled discs and calipers (and also make it easier to get in there for the inevitable clean-up)





Can't help myself (still on honeymoon from my recent "restoration")...here's an interior pic, too...

What great wheels everyone has! I am a simple man and love the classic look of my 18 inch turbo's. I think if I was going to change I would go with the MY02's. They just seem to really go well with everyone's car who has them.

Alan, what is the official color/color code that you had applied to your wheels? That is the color I have been looking for to paint my MY '02 wheels when I get them - pretty close to the diamond black on BBS RS-GTs.

The offsets aren't even close to what they need to be to fit.

Default Carrera III's too!

srm_993,

And my Cab. w/ Carrera III's. I added last spring off of a 05'

I know it's an SUV. Working on that soon! Hoping not to rub. offsets are 57 front and 58 rear (I think; might have them reversed).
