If you want these Forglines wheels I can powder coat these orange including the polished lips for 700.00.

Just did a set in 4.0 PMS white for another RL member and they turned out great!

You're going to have a very hard time finding factory delivered orange wheels, they were only delivered on black or silver cars and many opted for the silver wheel option. Your best bet is going to be to find a set of OEM RS wheels and get them stripped and painted. Done well they will look as good as OEM.

You may also want to reach out to Wheel Enhancement to see if they have a lead on these or can provide in RS Orange.

Nice looking car ^^^^ I could be wrong but was under the impression all OEM wheels were powder coated and painted wheels chip over time.

Love the orange wheels on the orange car.

FWIW I had the hollow spoke wheels on my 993 painted 6 years ago and they have held up fine.

Still looking
I was contacted by a member here he has a set
We agreed to a price on a factory set but then the other fellow bumped the price up
So...clean out your garage and sell me that factory orange 7.1 RS wheels!
