New to Porsche
Hello everyone. Mi first post here, actually my second.
I just bought my first 911, and my first Porsche.
It is a 2006 Carrera S and I am very excited with it. Only drove it a couple of milles but it is awesome.
Have tons of parts arriving to upgraded it and do some maintenance.
I was wondering if anyone know what wheels are this ones, as one it is not in very good shape and I want to change it.
Thanks to all

Thanks to everyone. They do look like the ruf`s but I`m pretty sure they are not. Anyway I really like them too, but do not feel like speeding on damage wheels. I`ll see what I can do. Anyone know where to buy Ruf`s wheels in the US??

Congrats on the car. Very nice. For the damaged wheel, consider having it repaired as long as you like the wheels and the damage isn't extensive rather than buying a new wheel or getting a whole new set. I had several curb rashes (one pretty bad) on my right front wheel which bothered me no end. Had one of the most reputable wheel fixers in my home town look at. "Piece of cake. Can make that look brand new in less than an hour, color match and all for $100" was his assessment. He wasn't bragging and blowing smoke. An hour later that wheel looked brand new. The previous damage absolutely undetectable and the color match perfect. Quiet a bargain compared to buying a new wheel for $1,600.
The best in the business really do magic with these repairs. My take for what it's worth, at least get an opinion and an estimate for repair before chasing the market for a new wheel which as best I come away with here, brand and model hasn't even been established yet. Some really good guesses yes, but is it the real deal or a cheap copy? A good repair guy will know.
