FS - 19 inch BBS Wheels/Winter Tires
Category: Wheels & Tires
Price (no $ sign please): $3500
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (select ONLY those which apply): 911
Location (Region): NorthEast
Item Condition: Used
Wheel and tire specs are attached. Should also fit a 997 C2S. If curious, use the TireRack wheel selector and see if these wheels come up as an option for your car.
Wheels purchased new from Tire Rack along with TPMS. Bought the tires new from Discount Tire because Tire Rack does not carry the Alpins to fit.
Also bought custom-ordered Porsche center caps from Belgium painted to match the finish of the wheels.
Am having a tiny scratch taken out of the right rear lip that is barely noticeable. But I would want to buy a perfect wheel. Other wheels are perfect.
Paid $5k for the full set, not including mounting and balancing. Will sell for cash or a cashiers check to a local buyer (Bergen County, NJ) for $4k who can pick them up from my garage. Will also meet someone in the area to make it easier.

I just went back on the TireRack site and chose the same wheels with the Pirelli tires. The cost was $4,179.96, the center caps are still going to run over $300. The Michelin PA4 is a better winter tire, which is why I paid more (and double shipping) to get them from Discount Tire and spent extra money for local mounting and balancing. I have a feeling the price on TireRack is going to creep up as we get further from Summer, btw.
But I guess if someone is content to get Pirelli winter tires and order new center caps, $4,000 seems high vs. $4,500 new. So I will drop the price to $3,500. $1,000 savings over new.
