Default 996 Turbo Wheels on C2 Photos?

Does anyone have a photo of a C2/4 with Turbo Look wheels such as pictured here (18x8 and 18x10)?



Thanks

I had them on my 2001 C4, made the car look so much better! I'm unsure if I have pics but I'll look.

I hope you can find some. I just bought the wheels and won't have them for a week but would love to see the photo of a car with them on it.

Well you already bought the wheels

Make sure to post pics when you get them installed... I'll still look.

I think that's my car. Dunno, it's been so long since I've seen it!

UFO, are those 18" turbo twists which were an option on a 996 C2 or a Replica Turbo wheel? The photo I'm after is the replica 18" C4S or Turbo wheel.

Thanks

They're the twists which is why I said 'something like this' . I mean, they're almost identical bar the lip.

Thanks, I love the look of those wheels on a narrow body car. What size tires did you use (if you remember)?

Thanks

Here are a couple of pics of my Turbo look wheels. BTW - I am currently running PS2's 235/40/18 on 8" wide front and 295/30/18 on 10" wide rear. The PS2's are on the car in the last two pics. I love the PS2's!
