Can't picture many anniversary owners selling the most noticeable component of their special edition car. Suncoast parts sells them separately, they're not cheap, wanna say 8 grand... Or I'd have them already - I like the fuchs look... There are 19s that look like those and can be repainted to match.. 1/2 price, like $4000 if I recall...

I don't believe they do. Suncoast handles them or did handle them at one point. I would contact them as i'm sure they've been asked this quite a bit and will know if any spacers/mods will work.

This is a similar much more economical copy. I'm not a wheel guy, but i think i've seen some guys on here who have these.

The 50th anniversary wheels look very similar to 987.2 Cayman S wheels, just with everything besides the wheel's spoke "face" painted black... I kid, sort a ... If want a similar (nit not identical) look on the cheap, could have Cayman s wheels refinished to polish to spoke "face" and face edge and paint black the rest.

Those are the OS Design II wheels that we offer, the custom double tone is custom so it will run you a little more than the base cost of $1899/set.

The wheel dynamics product look nice and especially for the price but fitment isn't a slam dunk. Also check out rotiform FUC wheels. Forged, custom, perfect fit.

Yeah, just looked those up, they are at $6,044.00 set

Our wheels will fit the narrow body 991 pretty nice, the wide body does IMO need to be kicked out a little since the rears are stock 48 and ours are 52.

However when you can purchase THREE sets of ours for the price of one set of theirs it kinda makes you re-evaluate your spending...

not a shot at your wheels. 1500/wheel is a good value for forged wheels that don't need spacers.

non forged should be 1/3 the price.

Hey- That's my car! Cool, yes, I totally recommend them. If you like the old school look. With custom painting exactly how I wanted them they were like $2600 or so. Great deal.
