Default Special on RH 3.6 Wheels



We were running short of components to build the RH 3.6 wheel, so we ordered up 3 pallets of centers, outer lips, and inner barrels from Germany. We can now build these in nearly any 5x130 Porsche fitment, and we will be selling them at way below the retail price while supplies last! Expect a 5-7 day build time once the order is placed, giving us adequate time to spec, build, seal, and test.

Typical fitment on a Boxster 986 is 18x8.5 ET45, 18x10 ET40. Price will be $3749 + shipping (wheels only). The standard center finish is silver, but they are available in black for $400 extra.

These do take factory lugs and center caps, but we also have many aftermarket options available. If you would like a complete package with tires, please contact me by PM or at 888-488-2028 (Cameron @ ext 255) for fitment and pricing.

The wheels you see on Ebay are one-piece cast wheels that are styled to look like a multi-piece. If you look closely, you'll see that the rivets and seams are fake. Looks like the lips are not really polished either, but machined.

The RH 3.6 is a true 3-piece wheel, with a cast center, spun inner barrels, and spun/polished outer lips. Spinning is a superior process for manufacturing the barrels and lips, making the end product stronger and lighter than cast.
