I thought only AC Cobra's and old vettes had knock offs
Seriously now, yes, Bob et al are correct (as usual), these are knock-offs. I would hold out for the real deal.

Makes me think (it hurts).........What would I be in for, converting 993 lugs to Knock offs and is that possible/ practical? Any up side down side, comments. I had 'em on an old MG back inthe mid 70s I thought they were very cool.
TIA

I don't know what Bob would say, but....
you'll need a seabag full of money to pull this off. New uprights for the front and rear as well as BBS and or Speedline wheels with the single large hole. Knock off s were standard on the 993 Cup Car {The Euro Race Version of the 993}
Torque this wheels down...always fun. They require approximately 300 Lbs of torque. Most guys with the GT3 Cup Cars have a single purpose $800 SnapOn torque wrench. Its about 4 feet long.
As we all know, anything is possible if you want to spend enough money!
