FS: 996 WB Solid Spoke Turbo Twists [Snows?]
Pitching these as a set of snow or spare set of wheels for your WB 996.
Pretty close to flawless; no curb rash, no bends, no cracks, etc; ‘C4S’ center caps and generic valve stem included; stock color and finish.
$400 picked up
Priority will be given to order of PMs received.

They are beautiful, but if they are your 11x18 OEM wheels, they won't work as snows. There isn't a snow tire made that will fit them. The Porsche recommended rear wheels for snow tires on the C4S are 10x18.

Pirelli Snowsport 240 have a size that works fine. The only N-rated Porsche approved winter tires in the right size for a widebody 996 when using the 8x11 rear wheels. Fronts are 235/40/18, rear are 295/35/18. Slightly higher sidewall than the summer tires and the ride is a bit softer, but it works great in the white stuff. I've been using those for 3 winters.

Pirelli just discontinued the Snowsport 240. I'm not sure what the replacement tire is or what the sizing it yet.

Also, the Porsche C4S recommended winter tire is a 10", so they actually recommend changing wheels too.

Yeah... that's the ticket!
Did you put hollows on instead, or something totally different?
