These are the lightest aluminum wheels available for the Cayman S at 17.4 lbs front and 18.8 lbs rear. The rear offset is 5mm more aggresive than stock, and the front offset the same as stock, these wheels reduce almost 20 lbs on unsprung weight compared to the lightest 18" wheels available for the Cayman S from Porsche.
The tires are Hoosier 285/30R18 A6 with just 2 autocrosses and 18 laps total.
The wheels come with TPMS sensors and valves. This is a critical function for track use, as you can monitor tire pressures while on track, and the TPMS issues a loud warning in case of a sudden tire pressure loss or a flat.
The wheels have been used for less than 100 miles, and just 8 autocross days with no racetrack time. Wheels are balanced and ready to mount.
In order to fit a 285 front tire in the Cayman, a 5mm front spacer is required with longer lug bolts from Porsche. The spacers and lug bolts are included with this sale.
The purchase price for these wheels, TPMS sensors, 10 lug bolts, (2) 5mm Porsche spacers, (4) 285/30R18 A6 tires is close to $4,000, save almost $1500 with this set.
I have tested these tire sizes (another set) on stock offset wheels (for sale too) at a track day, and the car was just 2.5 secs behind the track record at Homestead running with NASA for the TTB class. Great balance.
These tires don't rub as long as the stock Cayman suspension is being used.
