I am hunting for a 993 and came across this cab and very much like the wheels. Were these Porsche OEM wheels? Anybody have a name and part # if so?

Just building out a list of things I like

Yep, OEM "Sport Classic II" made by BBS for Porsche.

I believe they are BBS wheels made for Porsche, they were an option

Those appear to be the Sport Classic II's and yes they were offered from Porsche. I've got the same on my car.

Those look like they're 996/986 Sport Classic II wheels, not sure if they were offered as a factory option on the 993. There's also a Sport Classic, which is pretty much the same design in a one-piece wheel.

I agree, those look mighty fine on the 993. Plenty of folks use "water-cooled wheels" on their 993s, do a search for "MY02" and I'm sure you'll come across info on fitment.

Cheers,

993 wheels, started shipping in 96.

sport classic II, best looking OEM wheel and hardest to clean.

I saw that car in person at Sloan Cars and those wheels looked great.

OEM Sport Classic II. Have them on my C2S with painted centers. Fronts are 8x18 with ET 52 and p/n 993 362 13650. Rears are 10x18 with ET 65 and p/n 993 362 14050. The rears require spacers. +1 on cleaning difficulty but they do look good IMHO. There is a slightly different version that was OEM for the Boxster.

Very nice cab and great looking wheels. Not at all common so your 993 would stand out yet have OEM rims. What are details of car for sale? I have 1998 cab triple black which I love and have upgraded already. Good luck.

If this was at sloan cars I would rather rec the 1998 C4 cab as not many around in this version. Also have 285 hp vs 272. They have a couple nice cabs in stock.

I have a 1995 with those same rims. How does one find out if they are the OEM made by BBS or knockoffs?

Secondly, what is the difference between the painted crests in the center and the black and whites?

The prior owner said to mix 'simple green' about 1/2 with water and spray on the rims. then rinse with water and that cleans them well without having to manually go in between the spokes. Not tried it yet....

If you remove a wheel, you can look on the inside of the hub and see 'BBS' and the Porsche part number (starts with 993). Here is what they look like with the centers powder-coated black. I still love the SCIIs

Look carefully at the photo of the car with the black center caps and you'll see they are dished. My painted ones are flat. I think (but not sure) that the dished centers were for the Boxster. I discovered this when ordering a replacement center.

I have used Simple Green too. Make sure you don't let it dry on the wheel. Perhaps, if you cleaned your wheels daily, using SG straight or mixed 50/50 and then rinsing would, like magic, make brake dust disappear. My car is a DD with several days between wheel cleanings. Some type of wheel cleaning solution and a brush or bug sponge are necessary to get them clean. YMMV.

I double checked the center caps on my rims. The caps may very well be on the Boxter but they have a part # of 993.961.303.05. I would imagine Porsche using the same center caps for different cars.

Does any one have a set of sport classic 2's to sell. They look better than the stock 17' wheel on my 993.
