sharkwing,
With or without rubber? Track or street?

I have a spare set of 964C2 17"Cup 1's, black, mfg is Borbet with Hoosier RS03's not being used (they were spares delivered with my 964 Cup car) if you're interested.

What are the sizes and specs of those wheels? Are they factory wheels? How much are you asking?

That is if sharkwing is not interested. Thanks.

Fronts:
Borbet, Germany, black, 7 1/2J x 17H2, ET52mm, JWL, metal valve stems
Hoosier R3S03 245/40ZR17

Rears:
Borbet, Germany, black, 9J x 17H2, ET47mm, JWL, metal valve stems
Hoosier R3S03 275/40ZR17

Tires have 4-6 heat cycles, plenty of rubber/life left (R3S03's no longer available from Hoosier). Rims are straight and true. Minor surface scuffs/scratches from tire changes. They are Cup style wheels, Borbet C2T IIRC.

Let me know if you have any additonal questions or photo requests. I'm not sure if rennlist rules allow for pricing in posts, so PM for that.

Kevin,
I got this (thanks Google) from http://www.europeanspeed.com/wheelweights.htm

Borbet Type C2T (Porsche OE) Cast 17x7.5 22.0
Borbet Type C2T (Porsche OE) Cast 17x9 23.5
Borbet Type C2T Cast 17x7.5 28.0
Borbet Type C2T Cast 17x9 30.0

Borbet was an OE supplier to Porsche, I don't recall seeing Porsche P/N's, but I can look again tonight for any additional markings/numbers.

Thanks, but I won't be interested if they are not the oe wheels. I'm trying to get rid of my heavy knock offs.

I have some OE 17x7.5 and 17x8.5 twists from a 996 so they will have the later offsets. I have them listed in the classifieds section and they're also listed on ebay (if you want to see all of the pictures). I'll let them go for $750 shipped.
