Thanks for the very helpful list!!

Question: I'm looking to purchase (from afar) what appears to be a set of OEM turbo twist wheels that look to fit a 993 with 8x18 ET50 and 10x18 ET65 but the gent selling them cannot locate a part # on the backside. They appear to be ?hollow spoke? due to the smooth backside of the spoke-- but shouldn't there be a Porsche part number somewhere on one of the spokes? Could they be 996 wheels?

If no Porsche part #, they may be knock-offs

thanks...

I think the rear offsets, ET65, are for narrow bodies. The wide body offset is ET40

Thanks JGB and P-daddy. Knock-offs may be the case- thx. If not, would 25mm spacers work with them-- or wiser just to get proper ET40 WB wheels. Price is right and would use for winter wheels.

OP-- sorry, didn't mean to hijack.

Definitely narrow body offsets described. Do you know how the seller identified the offsets? Factory wheels usually have the offset and width located adjacent to the valve stem hole on the outside wheel face

How to identify an original Porsche rim:

The "ET 65" was engraved as was the size. But with no part #, appears they are knock-offs. I think I'll have to pass given they are NB and knock-offs. Thanks for all the helpful info.

FYI, it is probably easier to find a true factory hollow spoke rear wheel in wide body offset than in narrow body offset. Hollow spoke fronts are the same for both and therefore more plentiful. Keep in mind there is also a 996/Boxster version with a 7.5" front width and it carries a part # starting with 993.

Interesting charts.

Funny how there doesn't appear to be a weight for the targa wheels on either link. Anyone know?
