Default What wheels are on this ‘06 Carrera S?
Hey guys, I’m purchasing this beauty and was wondering what year and model the wheels are from? They look like much newer 911 wheels but I can’t aeem to figure out exactly what they’re from? They are 19’s and have 235’s in front and 305’s in back. Any help is appreciated!

Ooh! I love this game! I'm going to go with 26" spinners, Pat.

Those are the Light Weight Magnesium "Benjy Franklin" wheels. Oem for 997. I hear they are a P.I.T.A to balance though!

A picture of the wheels or link to the ad would be helpful.
