Default Early Cup wheels for Sale

Hi,

I have a set of the cup wheels for sale for the -02 cars. These have the 0229021 centers with 1's and 8's in the front and 1.5's and 9.5's in the rear. I just picked up a set of E88 wheels and I already have 4 sets, so I do not need 5.

They are straight and in nice shape.

I am looking for $3000 plus shipping for these.

I will try to get some pictures tonight.

Thanks

Ed

It appears they are early centers, You will need a 4-6 mm spacer to clear the caliper on the late 996 02-05. They do have the late rim halves though so they are 9's and 11's. They will work fine though as long as you run the spacer. I may be wrong about them being the early center number, going off memory so I will let Ed clarify.

Glen is absolutely correct. I ran a 3.5mm spacer and they worked over the larger calipers. The correct late center for the front I think ends in 9052.

Yes, all are correct. The late cup centers do end in 052. These would require a 3mm spacer in the front (which I had done at one point). If you do not use the spacer, the wheels physically fit, but they will touch on the calipers.

Really what I did, though, is use the 021 centers in the rear and use the 052 centers in the front. That way I could run without spacers and the 021 centers in the rear were no big deal since we are really only talking about a difference of 5mm of offset and there were no clearance problems in the rear.

So, yes, they could be used on a late cup with workarounds, but not optimum.

Thanks

Ed
