Sure--once the market sees that something is popular all the casting shops start to ramp up!

Exactly....trying to figure out if wheel enhancement's the real deal? Or just go with tech equip dealer option.

WheelEnhancement looks like the real PAG SC wheel - comes up under the "Factory Original" search.
WheelDymamics is their own spin on it, but not bad - a little skinny maybe.
SpeedArt is hard to say, because if you look at the turbo and boxster, those are not the same wheels. One looks like the new, real Fuchs forged wheel (Boxster) and the other (Turbo) looks like a bad copy of the PAG wheel.

So the one you didn't list is Fuchs, forged not cast - http://www.fuchsfelge.de/index.php?id=189

Fuchs also makes the Turbo wheels. The new Turbo II looks pretty good on a Black car - other colors, not so much.


And then there's the upcoming Fuchs USA forged wheel that we have not seen yet - should be interesting too.

those Speed Art wheels are $7000 - $8000 per set

I got the factory ones last week. Priced them from a couple places on line, then called the local dealer to see if he would match, and he did. Substantially less than the $6495 list (including new set of PS2s, TPMS, mounting, balance, etc). They may be cast, but on a street car they are perfect, look like $1m and are factory. Put them on a midnight blue 997.1tt coupe.

can we pry to have an estimate of where you ended at with wheels and tires?

But which Speedarts? The Turbo or the Boxster - they aren't the same wheels?
