Recently bought a set of take-off Carrera IV 18" wheels for track use. They are the base '09 Carrera wheel.

F 8x18 57mm offset 22lbs (approx)
R 10.5x18 60mm offset 24lbs (approx)

Weights are calc'd from subtracting listed weight of my tires from total weight of wheels/tires which I recently measured.

thank you!

im guessing these wheels only came in one spec? i.e. yours arent from like a c4 by chance where offsets might be different than the same wheels on my c2?

Riley, yes only 1 spec from Porsche. Just so ya know you can fit 9x18 and 12x18 on your car with 245-40-18 and 305-35-18 for a real agressive performance look. This is what I use for the track.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for.
18 inch Carrera IV wheels from C4 are:
8 J x 18 H2, RO 57 part no. 997.362.137.01
11 J x 18 H2, RO 51 part no. 997.362.143.00

If anyone is looking to sell a complete set of these wheels, I am interested in purchasing. It seems difficult to find a set of take off rims in this size.

The standard front wheels on the C2 and C4 are the same with identical part numbers. However, the rear wheels are different. On the C2 the rears are 10.5J x18 with a part number of 997.362.141.05. And, as shown above, the offset on the 11 inch C4 wheels is 51mm and on the 10.5 inch C2 wheels it's 60mm. Maybe someone has tried this and it's not a problem, but is it possible that the wheels designed for the wide body C4 might have clearance issues on the C2?
