wheels
Can anyone tell me who makes the 18' cup wheels I have seen on a few cars or the 18' (997 style) claw wheel I have also seen...
Or is anyone can point me to a nice set of 993 NB twist wheels...
Thanks,
Chad

Here is a good place to start and the thread is a sticky at the top of the 993 section. Many posts list the make/model of wheel. Get a coffee and enjoy:

There are many websites you can google that do replica wheels, or go to the stealerships for current originals. Tire Rack, GMP Performance, Wheel Enhancement - lots to choose from.
BTW, if you are talking about 18" versions of the 993 17" cup wheel, they were not Porsche OEM but replicas from Italy I think and a few people (me included) keep a beady eye open for them, I'd love a set.

Guys who have had experiences with the rare Cup 2 18" wheels (as mentioned by John above, are replicas and were never OE) will tell you they are quite brittle, and once one of them inevitably cracks, you will have an incomplete set of wheels and the near impossible task of finding a replacement.
They do look fantastic, though.
