IIRC stock wheel on a C4S was not hollow. The look just like the turbo twists but are not the technology wheels. First place to save A LOT of unsprung weight on a C4S

wheels are coming off a 2003 996 C4S.. I'm interested in buying them and I just wanted to confirm they are the Hollow Spokes as I hear all cars post 01' are Hollow...

It would be best to have the seller(?) or somebody check them by reaching around a spoke. You know how some P-car owners are known to swap parts and mod their cars .....they may or may not be the '03 factory stock wheels...

I'ms sure you know:
Back of spoke smooth = hollow
Back of spoke ribbed = solid
