Hi


First sorry for my bad English


We have a 993 Vesuvius with 18" Techno rims. Apart from the cars vin it is born with M408. As you see on the Picture the rims is silver. But should they not be 61W, like the mirros, doorhandles ect?


Looking forward to here from you Porsche fans

The offset color rims were only offered with the 17" cup wheels as on mine:

Yes they were offered only with the cup II's , the paint code for the wheels is not PW61 , when I did my 996 hollow twist I took the car to a body shop and they use some type of machine and they took samples of the paint color from the mirrors and came up with the color on my wheels now , btw I will be posting the 996 twist for sale soon because now I had the centers of a set LM BBS's done in the same Color of the mirrors for the Vesuvius

The color is called StahlGrau. My hollow spokes:





Not a good pic, but you can see the wheels.

what is the paint code or comparable powder color?

Opo

The correct paint code for StahlGrau is PW61 , but when we used that paint code on the wheels they didn't match the mirrors or split grill , we had a hard time getting a match , so I took the car to a paint supplier here in town and what they did they used like a camera that took a picture of the mirror and with that picture the computer gave them the right mix and they came back with the color of my wheels .

Opo, out of curiosity your wheels are satin or matte finish? Can't figure out from my phone but looks excellent your 993 in that combo!

Matte finish
