Is this the 996 Sport Design?

I don't think that's what is called a Sport Design. Maybe just called 10 spoke? Check www.wheelenhancement.com

There's a guy asking $400 for a set on Tampa Craigslist.

They are 996 10-spoke wheels. I have them on my 993 and I really like the look. Some places brand them as "lightweight" wheels. I'm not sure if that's the case, but they do feel lighter than my 17" cups.

like that 10-spoke-wheel a lot on 993s. especially matt black powdercoated...

re lightweight: one of the lightest OEM-wheels in 7 & 9x17 is the 996 carrera 2-wheel.
put it on my 993 with winter tires...

I'm always looking for good track wheels. These looked like a deal, but I'd like to stay with 18s.
