Default Name these wheels.

This pic has been around for long time but I would love to find those wheels. I cant make out the center cap logo. I'm curious if their available for the 997? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Not sure if I am missing something specific, but generally these are called "split 5" rims. Lots and lots of manufactures make rims just like these, for about every car.

A lot of companies are making split 5 spokes like that these days. To me, looks like signature sv104

BC rz21 also really similar

gonna bet they are a cheaper cast knockoff wheel since they have a plain jane center cap.

Thanks for the links. I'm a huge fan of anodized {gold} wheels. I like the BC Forged.

HRE makes a very similar wheel, the FF01.

These look like BC Forged. If you want better quality, there are HRE's.

Or if you don’t want to sell a kidney…

Titan 7 Forged Wheels




I have some cheap heavy 5 spoke wheels, Avant Garde M510.

Love the flat spokes.

Picked them up used on the Rennlist classifieds locally.

It's a subtle thing, but I don't like wheels where the bolt holes are between the large spoke that comes off the hub before it splits. It results in the center of the wheel just being a round circle. The gold wheels shows are like this vs the black wheels on the silver car that have a much nicer hib design where the mounting holes are integrated in the spoke. When done this way, the center sections of the wheels between the spokes have the material removed and don't look like a circle.


Circle in center of wheel with bolts between spokes is less nice


Bolt hole integrated into spoke is a nicer design because the center hub of the wheel isn't a plain circle.



Another example of the bolt holes integrated into the spokes instead of between them

Are the FI-R's offered in Anodized gold or gold? Do you offer an aggressive fitment for a 997 NB in 19?

We offer custom finishes so anything you like we can do. They come in 20" in 5x130 only though. I have some other 19" options I can show you. If you like drop me an email eric@supremepower.com and I can help you check out some more options

BC Forged KL01 is very similar.

EDIT: BC Forged RZ21 is the wheel or at least as close as it gets
