This will only work if you live fairly close to the Tampa Bay area or the Ft.Lauderdale area. I'm trading my car next week and of course the dealership will give me next to nothing for the wheels. I had planned on swapping the stock wheels for mine at delivery but the car I'm getting already has Champion wheels so I essentially own two sets now. I'd much rather let a rennlister have these than basically giving them away to a car dealer.

I will take any 997 stock wheels in very good or excellent condition with decent tires + $1,500 or best offer as long as you can meet me somewhere in the Sarasota or Ft.Lauderdale area to do the swap next week. Again....997 widebody offset. Great condition with zero rash and only minor cosmetic blemishes. Has to be some of the highest quality wheels made and certainly among the lightest if not the lightest. The rear 11.5" monsters weigh in at just over 20 lbs. Last time I checked a new set cost $5K+.

 

If only I had a Porsche......

That is a smokin' deal. I certainly hope a Rennlister takes advantage of this offer!

 

Great deal. Some more info please:
TPMS?
Both front and rear widths and offsets
What tires are mounted?

I have a set of 997.1 turbo wheels with almost new Bridgestones mounted (less than 1,000 miles). Wheels are ok no major damage balanced perfectly. Am interested.

 

Dang, first time in my life I wish I lived in Florida

 

Tim....you're a wealth of knowledge on these cars. Do you know the offset numbers for these wheels?

 

Thanks for the kind words!

Unfortunately, I don't know the offsets on your RS98 wheels because they are not like the Porsche wheels which have specific offsets for narrow body and wide body cars. This can, and does, vary occasionally by model year.

Most aftermarket wheels can have varying offsets. This allows the most flexibility for the manufacturer to be able to fit a wider range of cars.

Do you have the original paperwork/invoice? The offsets may be listed there. Sorry I can't help more.

 

No TPMS. Fronts are 8", rears are 11.5". I'm having a hard time finding the exact offset numbers. All I can tell you is that they fit just like the stock wheels which in my opinion means they need spacers. I have 7mm on the rears and 5mm up front. This brings the sidewall of the tires exactly flush with the fenders. Tires are Bridgestone Potenza REO50A. 235/35/19 front, 305/30/19 rear. Fronts have better than 60% remaining and rears probably slightly less but better than 50%.

 

I have the paperwork but the offset isn't there. As I said previously, I think the offset is next to identical to the stock rims. They mount exactly the same, meaning slightly inside the fenders. 7mm and 5mm spacers (rears/fronts) bring them out flush with the fenders. What the paperwork DOES say is that this set cost $5,200. I don't think they've gotten cheaper since 2007.

 

Somebody take advantage of this please. Awesome deal for awesome wheels!

 

A $5,000 set of wheels in almost excellent condition for $1,500 is met with a big yawn. Tough crowd. Not even a shameless offer. The dealer gets them for free on Wednesday, maybe tomorrow if I have time.

 

I have a 06 4S and would do it if I could get there quick enough! Live in Phoenix and just couldn't drive there that quick. Bummer!!

 

I recall the offsets on my 98's being marked on the inside of the wheel. Call Champion. They are great guys.
