Default Deal on Speedline RS Wheels...

I've been working on this deal for a few months now...

I can now offer 4 sets of the RS wheels - as most of you are aware, these are becoming harder to obtain as no other production is planned in the forseeable future.

I purchased a set to ensure that this was truly legitimate, which I just recieved a week or so ago. YES the "speedline for PORSCHE" script will be present on the lip - as will the width/offset etching. The bolts also have the correct Speedline logo.

We have managed to negotiate a $4000 plus shipping price for each of the 4 sets. I paid $140 for shipping to me, so expect a similar cost (west coast could be another $40)... Considering these wheels are $5500 from the dealerships that still have a few in stock, I think that this is a pretty good deal! These WILL be discontinued soon. I have ONLY posted in the 993 section of this forum to give you the first opportunity....

Please PM me if you are willing to participate. I will need a $500 deposit from each of the 4 participants to order - with payment in full required prior to shipping. I can provide references from previous transactions on this forum as necessary.

Here are some pictres of mine (they are gorgeous..):

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Multiple sets of wheels and tires is a great way to change your car's appearance and keep it looking fresh. You don't wear the same shoes every day, do you? And before you comment that these are NB offsets, which they are, there's nothing wrong with a couple spacers to make these work (OK, heavy wheels AND spacers aren't ideal but.....). "kdurg" had a set on his Arena Red WB and they looked awesome.

Just sayin.......

I also have a beautiful set of widebody offset supercups.... LOL! My friends call me the wheelwhore.

These are certainly heavier than some of the other aftermarket wheels out there, though there is a certain "cache" that these Speedline wheels give to your car. Trust me - people definitely look for the "speedline for Porsche" etching & they are one of the best looking factory wheels that Porsche EVER offered.

Thanks for the PM's - looks as though this deal won't last long.

Yes, I often wear the same shoes everyday. And my shoes cost way less than $4,000!

I've nothing against spacers, in fact my OEM MY02s require spacers on the rears of my C4S.

I know many people love these wheels. I'm just happy that they weigh a lot and are very expensive. It keeps me from wanting them. Whew!

I'm OK for now, but never say never (have a feeling I may need one one day)....

Like I said, I DO also have a perfect set of Supercups available too.

Yeah, they're heavy. Speedline Alesio are very similar and I weighed them at 29.5 lbs (rear, 18") and 28.5 lbs (front). But man, they look great.
