This thread is the happiest thread I've seen in a very long time!

I have been looking for a couple years for something to replace my Victor Equipment wheels and found a smokin deal on these OZ Superleggera wheels last week.

I've had my C2 all of ten days now and it's totally stock with Cup II wheels. I must have too much time on my hands because over the past few days I've gone through all 81 pages and 1203 posts on this thread.
I'm pretty much a purist and plan to leave it as-is for now but thanks to everyone for sharing and providing some tasty food for thought.

Powder Coated
As part of my 993 repaint, I had my Turbo Twist Wheels powder coated by J&J Powder Coating in Virginia Beach. They look painted but are not. Have the tires on now and waiting for car to be painted to mount!

16 inches rock
I was able to score a set of original 16-inch winter wheels for the 993. The fronts are 7x16 ET 55 with 205/55 R16, the rears 8x16 ET 70 with 225/50 R16. I guess I could use spacers for the rear, but this offset allows the use of snowchains. Not that I ever will do that. Anyway, I like the old school look with these wheels.

Thanks. Porsche calls this the 16 inch cup design 93 wheel. This was the stock design for wheels on the 993. 17 inch wheels were an option, although I suspect, most actually left the factory on 17 inch wheels.

What's with the above post????
Updated - There was a post above this one that was totally unrelated to this thread that is now deleted.
FWIW, I love the wheels on the post that is now above this one.

That was spam/advertising. I flagged it earlier today. I guess one of the moderators made it go away.
