Default Help identifing porsche wheels
Can you identify these wheels? Are they 17s inch or possible 16s. I'll be wanting new wheels and tires for 97 nb on it's way to me! Any suggestions for someone who sells a package ties and wheels. I was thinking turbo twist wheels, but am open.

16" Standard Wheels.

Congrats on your new ride.

My personal favorites for NB 993 wheels:

RS Speedlines
BBS RSGT
RUF 18" 5 spoke
Kinesis K28
etc...

(I have none of these but I can spend other peoples money really well)

These wheels are very common. You can usually find a 17" set on eBay - maybe even with tires. Nice wheels and very inexpensive.

They're not Turbo Twists. BEEN CORRECTED: ARE NOT the standard wheel on early Boxsters.

They also made a 9J rear, which also had an offset of 70.

Yup looks like a early standard Boxter wheel.
