...O.K., now I've decided to order 18" wheels, I need opinions ASAP on which would look the best on a stock C4 (no body-kit etc.)

I don't like the Porsche Sport Design/Sport Classic and am willing to consider quality aftermarket wheels - must be available in the UK, though!

Thanks in advance.

Not a 996 but it shows the rims. I love that car. <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

Well, obviously I'm partial to the Kinesis K28 forged wheels.

I hate cleaning between the wheel spokes with brushes and toothbrushes etc. so we decided on the 18" Carreras.

Bocky, you got the right idea. All the others shown are similar to Sport Classics, and a big PITA to keep clean!

Porsche offered an interesting wheel design concept that was displayed in a magazine about four months ago. I'm travelling right now so don't have access to the picture, but will paste it when I return.

It's a cross between the Turbo II look and the '02 (thin) five-spoke rims. I thought it looked quite good.

Actually, wait, wait, let me see if I can dig it up on archive (pause, pause). Ok, got it. How do you link a previous thread??!! Just search under Sport Techno in the 996 Forum.

Those are my rims, baby!!

Regards.

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

What do you think of the RUF 18" wheels? Scroll down in the link below<a href="http://www.ruf-automobiles.com/html/components996.htm" target="_blank">RUF wheels</a>

by far RUF 18" looks the best IMO
