Default has anyone found aftermarket wheels

to replace the center hub ones on the GT3 .2? any other center hubs? i'm afraid a set of P-wheels will be more expensive than HRE.

i ask because i wnat to put snows on my 3 so i can drive it in inclement weather.

yes, thank you!

i was hoping that someone had actually bought one or another and can comment on their purchase.

any way you cut it, it will be expensive, i just don't want to make an expensive mistake. if it were regular wheels i'd just buy HRE from wheel enhancement and be done with it, but this is uncharted for me.

ATS can make whatever You need. Give them the specs using the spec sheet. Should be @ 1000$ per wheel.

don't the GT3s lack rustproofing the regular Carrera's feature to save weight?

Any reason you have political quotes in your signature? Not to be funny but I come here to escape reality, news and politics and enjoy cars. Oh well.

BBS will have the CUP-like wheels with GT3 centrelock mechanism available in about 8 weeks. These are three piece. They should also have the RSR-like monoblocks available come May.
I have received this info from them in Germany. The prices without VAT are roughly EUR800 for 3-piece wheels, and roughly EUR1000 for monoblocks. Both should be available in 18in size.
Hope this helps,
wurlie

Wurlie,
Will the RSR monoblocks be available in 5 lug and custom offsets/widths?

Hi Jon - sorry for such a late reply - I missed your post earlier.
I was only told about the centrelock monoblocks, I am not sure about the 5 lug application.
I will update the info as soon as I have news.
Best, wurlie

GMG came out with a set that looked awesome. Best looking centerlock I've seen.
