Steve;
Just fickle, I guess. Just a thought, for now.

Arlen;
Will do

18" BBS LMs and Fikse FM-10s look best on the 993.

Just my luck - looking at this thread and find my two favorite wheels are the Veloce GT1's and the Kahn RSR's. Neither available in widebody fitments from what I could find from a bit of research.

Doug,

You can run spacers in the rear and get NB wheels to fit just fine.

This topic is perfect for me since I am shopping for rims. Does anybody have a picture of a 993 with some HRE C22's?

Thanks,

Hello trojanman and ibdavid,

Just wondered which of you guys has got your wheels on the correct side? Or maybe it doesn't matter if you have non-directional tread patterns on the tyres? Having said that, I thought the spokes were designed to assist with cooling the brake discs (i.e. rotors).

I'm interested because I'm just about to swap out my 17" Cups for a set of these. I'm with you, I think they look perfect on a 993.

Thanks,

Steve

Hey Jonathan,

I don't think the HRE C22's are that new. Here is a link to them at Wheel Enhancement http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...lDetail&id=141

I was thinking about them in grey to match my car.

Wow. all those posts and no one mentions 993 Targa factory wheels (made by Speedline, BTW)?

Failing that, Kinesis Supercups or factory 993 RS.

Targa wheels are ugly and too small.
