I have a set of 18" wheels that came stock on my 99 c4. Let me know if you are interested. They are in good shape, couple of scuffs.

Here is a pic of them:

I was more in the market for winter wheels, I think yours might be a bit wide for that purpose. But I'm still a little interested, how much are you looking to get?

I am seriously tempted. I have those wheels on my car at the moment, I like the way they look. But they are a difficult design to keep clean in the winter months. What did you replace them with?

I'll let you know,

Thanks,
Matt

Yummmmmy - how much are the GT3 wheels and are they Porsche OEM wheels? 18"? I'm looking to buy a 996 very soon and am not impressed with the way the car looks with standard wheels! My friend thinks the yellow color car is "cartoonish and not grown up" when I asked him about yellow as a possible color option yesterday, but I LOVE the bland looking 996 in the not so bland at all yellow.

Excellent choice.
Look forward to more $'s info on those wheels.
Regards,
Steve

My 17" stock 996 wheels (01 C2 Cab) are coming off very soon to be replaced with the great looking SSR GT3 wheels and some SO3 tires.

If your interested in them you can have a look at:
