Rim Identification....?
Hi Guys,
I've seen these rims before on other 996 WB's. Can anyone tell me who makes them? The seller is asking 2K for them, and I am waiting to hear on the condition of them, as well as tire condition. I will also confirm the offset, but hpefully if they fit on the Turbo, they should fit on mine if the PO got the correct sizing...

they look awefully close. the Victors have a bolt in between the double spoke, where on the Turbo, there isn't a bolt there.
Inspect the back of the wheels for casting identification.
The wheels should also have the widths and offsets clearly identifiable. If they are NB fitments, I would avoid putting them on a WB; better off looking for proper offset wheels, than having to deal with spacers.
If any signs indicate they may be replica wheels, then knock off at least $500 on the deal.
Other than that, $2K is not bad if the wheels and tires are in excellent condition and they are recently balanced.

Hmm, I didn't notice that bolt in between the spokes... So I guess that's not them. The rims are in Toronto, and I'm in Ottawa. But i'm awaiting some answers.... They are def WB fitment.
