Default FS: 996 Turbo Twist style Wheels 18" PRICE DROP

Update: Price dropped to $650. That's insane!! Someone get these!!

Up for sale is a complete set of non-oem 996 turbo twist style wheels for WB 993/996. These are not hollow spokes. Wheels are in fantastic condition. Two were refinished recently for minor scratches. Absolutely no cracks, bends, or curb rash. Only comes with tires for the front. Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport 225/40-18, with about 50% life. I would rate the condition a 9.5 out of 10 being new. Comes with colored crest caps x 4. Here are the specs:

F 8 x 18 et 50
R 11 x 18 et 45

Priced to move at $650 plus shipping. Local pick-up welcome. I can also meet half way to deliver if within 30 minutes of DC metro area.

Can you post the part numbers ?

Those rears (without tires) look like hollow spokes. They do not have the grooves on the back side of the spokes like you see on the fronts.

These are non-oem wheels. They're made that way with the smooth backs on the rears and grooves on the fronts. No Porsche #. Thanks

aftermarket or not...throw those rears on a bathroom scale to see. They just might be hollow...should be about 23-25 lbs if so IIRC.

GLWS , so...what's next?

IIRC, the rears weigh around 30. Them's no hollow spokes.
