Rear: 18x11 et 51. Part# 997.362.142.00
No TPMS. Center caps included.

Tires:
Nokian WR N0 Winter Tires. One of the few winter tires available for 997 WB fitments.
Front: 235/40/18. 7mm Tread Depth
Rear: 295/35/18. 6mm Tread Depth.
Approximately 8000 miles driven.

Price: $1650 + shipping (wheels and tires). (Refurbished is ~$2500 for wheels alone).

Location: Indianapolis, IN
Condition: Excellent. No bends. No curbs. No obvious scratches.
Prefer local, but can ship at buyer expense.

Wheel Condition:
These Carrera Classic 3 rims were made by BBS for Porsche 997 WB. They are one of the lightest wheels for WB 911s. Fronts weigh approximately 22 lbs. Rears weigh approximately 25 lbs. They are clean, classic, and in excellent condition!

Wheel Fitment:
They're designed for 997 WBs, but can also fit 996 WBs and 993 WBs with a front spacer.
They may also fit 997 NB, 996 MK2 NBs, and 928s depending on tire, camber, suspension, etc.
Several have fit 997 WB wheels onto 997 NBs.

History:
I'm the second owner. The first owner purchased them as an extra set for his 997 C2S and he only used them for a few months. I've enjoyed the aggressive stance on my 996 NB 40th, but I would like to get a set of blue 18" OZ Alleggeritas for autox use instead (if you have any, PM me). Thanks!

Blue OZ's you say? You think like me!
I wanted a set of those for my track days problem is finding the right color blue! (for me anyway)
I settled on a set of OE wheels, like yours above, NB fitment, and you have seen my story in the other thread, under 997.
PS contact me and I'll give you pricing info on the set I purchased.

Tires:
Nokian N0 Winter Tires. I belive these are the only winter tires available for 997 WB fitments.
Front: 235/40/18. 8mm Tread Depth
Rear: 295/35/18. 7mm Tread Depth.
I drove these approximately 3000 miles. The first owner probably drove these 1-2000 miles.

Thanks!

Very nice.
Nicest winter setup I've ever owned. Pretty much classic Porsche 5 spoke design.
Your summer wheels aren't shabby either. Two tone?
Thanks for a smooth one.

Turbo II's, thanks again

Getting TPMS installed next week. Does anyone know what a fair price is for installation and balancing?
