I have a factory set of Speedline 993 RS wheels that are apart, waiting for the right car to build a special set of wheels for. With parts I currently have could build 8.5 fronts and 11.5 rears price would depend on actual build and parts that get used.

I also have a set of Techart Daytona wheels that were made by Speedline for Techart. Less money than the 993 RS wheels, but again depending on your budget and what is to be built can custom build a set for your car.

from what I have heard and seen the Supercups won't clear Big Reds without spacers. Something to keep in mind.

I sent you a response. Here is the correct picture of the 11" deep wheel that should fit your car. I only have one of the 3.75" rims, but could build a test wheel to be sure.

I can confirm that
the Kinesis Supercup was a cast 17" replica of the 18" factory Speedline. JimDs picture above shows a factory center.

Bill, would a 10.5" rear 993 RS wheel fit under a lowered 993"? I was thinking about building this set with a 1.75" outer rear hoop instead of the factory 1.25" size. The other option that I am sure would work for TT guys is a 2.75" outer with the factory 8.5" inner and the crush ring .25" making a 11.5" rear wheel. Jim

Depends on how low,

On mine which is at Cup race height. 10"ET65 Speedlines are a perfect fit, 10" ET52 Speedlines would just kiss the rolled fender lip on the driver side.

So front space of ~70.4mm is fine but ~83.4mm is right at the edge for that height on a n/b. I don't know the limit on back space, no one has reported issues out to 215.6mm there
