Default AP Car Design Race spoke wheel

Has anyone ever dealt with this company? Do they have a US agent? They have a very nice website if you speak German. I am interested in their "AP Race Spoke Wheel" for my NB 993. They make them with gold or silver centers. Looks like they sell them as a wheel/ tire combo for about GBP 2099.00/ GBP 1899.00. I really like the Champion wheels, but it doesn't look like they make them in 18"s with the correct offsets for a 993. The 2 designs are very similar.

I love these wheels and searched a long time to find exactly what I was looking for. Since mounting them I've received a lot of compliments on how good they look on the car.

I paid just over 1600 GBP for them in Australia fitted with Pirelli P Zero Rossos. I believe they are a German made wheel and are distributed under licence so they may go by different names from different retailers. I should stress that although they are comparatively light for an 18" wheel they are NOT a true 3 piece rim. They are a one piece wheel in the style of a 3 piece. Just so you don't get a nasty surprise should you order them!

Regards,

Neil

JDhertz,

Are you going to sell your twists? I'm going to be on the market for some soon.

Javy,

I just bought the twists a few weeks ago. I will probably keep them because I love they understated look that they have on the car. However I would like a second set of wheels that look like the AP's. I think that the Champion's look just as good, but without the faux hex bolts that simulate a 3 piece wheel.

How much do these wheels weigh? They look like they're trying to be BBS magnesium wheels.
