Default Veloce/RH vs CCW vs BBS

Thinking to order a new rims for my 95 C2 cab. I like the classic Veloce/RH rims but heard the quality are bad. Or should I get something like CCW or BBS LM? Any comments?

I wanted one piece forged and choose CCW. To me, they served my needs best.

I have a set of Speedline Daytona wheels here for restoration and then for sale that look really nice on a 993. Jim jdorociak@gmail.com

RH rims are fine quality at least the 3.6 cups. RH wheels have to make it through TUV.

Personally haven't heard of quality issues on the Veloce. No affiliation, etc. I'd frankly consider them strongly if they were 10s instead of 9.5s in the rear.

I have no experience with them so no idea, I just commented on the ones I do have experience with.

I was surprised by Jim's price for the wheels, it was VERY good. If I did not have my Work Wheels showing up this week after a 7 month wait I would be all of the Daytona's.

depends on what you intend to use the wheels for? just street use or track? you want bling jewelry or plain business?

hre/bbs/speedline are great for mix use. but you'll pay a lot for them. frankly, i would go with CCW. cost less, weigh less, and crush tested at 3000lb per corner!

I like Inden Design, who has BBS wheels for Porsche. That is where I got my wheels...

I went for the three piece Inden Champion wheels. These are the original Porsche supercup wheels, however, not in magnesium. I went for 8.5" in front and 11" in the back...
