Part numbers for the wheels will all be the same, the differentiator is the finish which wouldn’t be documented on the wheel itself. You’ll need to look at the option codes to confirm what it had originally. You could always have the wheels sent out and refinished to whatever was provided originally with the car if you want it all original.

yeah, I understand that. I just want to ck for myself and do some research. The finish is identical to the 991.2 and the barrels are painted black on the .2 as well. I wish I had the window sticker. I’m actually like that they don’t have the chrome lip on the outside.

This car is on the Facebook Spyder group. it's in Hawaii. I'm waiting on an option code from the owner.

FWIW, even the Cayman R's with colored wheels, including Guards Red, had the silver lip when optioned from the factory:

Here is the build sheet for your car, which would match the window sticker. https://vinanalytics.com/car/WP0CB2A89BS745540/

No mention of wheels being painted.

Also, pic 71 here shows the window sticker for your car, again, no mention of the black wheels: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...ter-spyder-47/

Hopefully you're not disappointed with it not having that finish from factory, you shouldn't be. Easy to repaint wheels back to stock if you want it to be original. But plenty of people repaint wheels, like the car you showed above. Typically people will go for all black and not replicate the factory look of the silver lip.

Wow Bxstr, you're a one man database. Thanks for pulling up the window sticker! I'm not disappointed at all. The all black wheels are what drew me to the car besides the collectability
The pic above is where it all began. Cheers!
