Default 996 hollow turbo twists with NB offsets

Before I spend time waiting and watching for a set of 18" 996 hollow turbo twists with ET60-65 rears, can anyone tell me if such a beast exists.

I don't know if these are hollow but a guy in Sacramento has a set of 996 Twist. Here's the info he sent me:

> > 993.362.140.04 10J X 18 ET = 65

>> 993.362.136.01 8J X 18 ET = 52

I need WB so I didn't look up the part numbers to find out. If you want his contact info pm me.

Thanks for the info but I think those are the 993 hollow twists. I've done a little more research and I think the NB fitment in the 996 style is only available aftermarket and solid spoke. I may be interested in the set you mention especially if they need refinishing.

There exist 18"x8" ET50 Turbo II Hollow Spokes for front fitment on a 993 (p/n: 996.362.136.04), although I don't know the dates during which they were available.

There do not, however, to the best of my knowledge, exist any 18" Turbo II Hollow Spokes for rear fitment of a 993 NB. Solid spoke Turbo II 18" x 10" with ET 65 (i.e. 993 NB rear fitment) are available - p/n: 996.362.140.04), as are matching solid spoke Turbo II wheels for front fitment (18" x 8" - ET 50 - p/n: 996.362.136.01).
