Cup 1s. On the car are OE 964 RSA 8", 52mm offset. One is horribly lip scratched from curbing by the previous owner, and were used as occasional race wheels on the first RSA. Rears are replica 9s, forget the offset. One is slightly bent from one too many off track excursions, but it balanced out OK and isn't that noticeable. 28mm worth of spacing to make them look sorta right on a widebody.

My take on the commentary is that the author thinks Porsche has lost their mojo with the new 911s. The author makes a couple of references to our vintage cars, and implies that Porsche got it right with the 993.
After driving a few of the newer cars (997.1 and 997.2) both "S" and non "S" cars I would have to agree with the author. T

but
with his vast background in P cars, he is also very well suited to make such a judgment.
i certainly prefer my 993 over our 997.2, but don't fool yourself into thinking that the 997 is not A VERY CAPABLE CAR.
I have to push it harder / faster to get the same rewards, but they are available.
