Thank you.
there are a couple sets in the classifieds, although not sure on a 4S off sets.

give wheel enhancement a call. I just spoke to a Dave Martin a couple days ago. He mentioned a used set of Thechno's they had. Nice wheels, but I'm holding out for set of GT3's.

Here is a good guide to Porsche specifications. Pull up your year/model and look at the technical specifications. The year/model technical specifications list the wheel offsets.

I have a few to add.. MY02 Carrera IIs






Second set is 18" Enkei hollow spoke RC5 Carrera, and finally the last set is the GT3 NB.
The MY02 and the Enkei are both for sale and are up in the classifieds. Shown on my 99C2

Thanks for the suggestion. I will do that. I am living now in the US, but I plan to take my car back with me to Europe, that's why I am trying to get a set of OEM wheels with me for the winter there... and also because I am quite susceptible about the problems that the 19" wheels can give me in the technical inspection.

Fikse FM10s!


ive always loved these wheels, was lucky to buy a car with them on but they could use a refinish.

Debating on keeping and refinishing or selling for some Sport Design wheels

Edit: For some reason pics wont load from my phone or from my PC...

2000 C4 I just got. Anyone know what wheels these are? No brand markings I can see on them. Need to get some coilovers soon to drop it about 1.5 inches when I refresh the suspension.
