Question Porsche Forklift ?

Is Porsche now making forklifts?

Probably not, but on a recent trip to Portland I was reading the SWA Spirit Magazine and came across the following advertisement for SWA Cargo and thought these wheels looked very familiar. Of course I think this is photo shop, but did they use Porsche wheels, you can see the cross-drilled rotors behind the front wheel?
(my apologies for it not being a great picture, I have a ****ty scanner that I hardly ever use)

I love it!

.... because those forklift just move so quickly that you NEED cross drilled rotors.

Maybe they were designed by a Porsche enthusiast?

They drive far better forklifts on the street in Poland than they do in China... I remember seeing several on the streets when I was there last (with people riding on the forks!).
