A few months ago some of our clients seemed to all have a similar idea. A modern take on the classic 5 spoke wheel that could be adapted to fit a wide variety of of Porsche's. We approached our longtime wheel partner ForgeLine with the idea and we began to create. Fast forward to SEMA 2018 and we proudly debut debut of the FU3C.
The Forgeline FU3C wheel pays homage to the classic Porsche wheel of the 1960s and 1970s. But unlike its predecessor, the FU3C is a modern 3-piece wheel that is manufactured from fully forged 6061-T6 aluminum centers using the latest engineering and manufacturing technology. The FU3C borrows from the original five-spoke design with dimensional inverted tapered spokes, but rather than just recreate yet another replica, the Forgeline engineering team spent many hours refining our design to create a wheel with a unique distinctly Forgeline character. This resource-intensive process yielded a wheel with a concave center, carefully-tuned proportions, and extended spokes that reach out beyond the rim register and over the stepped lip outer.
No problem for Rear wheel steering equipped Porsche's.
19"-21" diameters and 8"-16" widths.
Available in Factory Centerlock & 5 lug variants as well as ForgeLine centerlock conversion pieces.
5 lug fitment centers can be built to accept factory Porsche centercaps.
Can spec an almost endless number of colors and finishes on the inner barrel, face & outer barrel.
We can Paint to sample match any part of the wheel to your car as well.
Typical 20" 991.2 GTS fitment runs around 8200/set dependent on finishes
Ask any questions we will continually update this thread with pictures of clients cars once the wheels start arriving!

those look gorgeous. can't wait to see them installed. i may need to pick up a set for a GT3T.
Will these fit the narrow body 991 C2S ? Pricing? Weight?
They are all custom built so we can make them to fit anything,
Price is very dependent on finishing options this GTS set 20X9+20X12 with the brushed and machined centers and brushed lip ran close to 8k including tpms sensors.
The rear 20X12" (GTS) fitment in centerlock is 24# being a 3 piece, will know the weights of the fronts soon.
Additionally these are available with a carbon fiber barrel that sheds almost 10# from the weight, the carbon barrel weighs in at a mere 3-4# per barrel!
