Exploring vast resources of the Web, I found following wheels:
Magnello 17"
What makes them special?
They are manufactured of forged magnesium by Russian airspace and military factory called Solikamsk Magnesium Works. 7,5 x 17" wheel weight is 5 kg's. They don't have Porsche size in stock, but make by order also other sizes. I wrote to them yesterday, asking possibility to produce 5 x 130 bolt pattern Porsche sizes. When normal magnesium wheelset costs more than U$ 2000, then Russian-made wheels are presumably less than U$ 1500. This is first time over last 10 years when knowledge of russian language is advantage 4 me.

Those are great looking wheels Jack. Thanks.
This is getting scary. I bought my car in June with most of the options I wanted. I have 18" Turbo look wheels and I like them. BUT now I'm finding myself looking at new wheels, a new shift boot/**** from Gert, new exhaust tips, a couple of things from Steve Weiner, etc.
Does the insanity never end?!
