WTB Spare Wheels (Pretty or Not)
As the title says: I'm looking for a full set of wheels for track days. They can be ugly... I don't care.
- OR - if you have a nice set of wheels, I'd consider them if the price is reasonable, and rotate the ones I have to track duty. I'm at 84120, and can supply a commercial shipping address, if helpful. Please let me know what ya got? I'm relatively anxious, as I have an HPDE I'd like to hit mid-June. |
Have a set of wheels I am selling. Have rubber on them.
Will do 125$ each + shipping for wheels with rubber. Please feel free to email me at porsche986parts@gmail.com Thank you, David http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1526963750.jpg |
Are you looking for 17"s or 18"s? I've got a set of Italian replica 18" Cayman S wheels, painted black and one has some silver accents where I was experimenting with a Fuchs look, they are taking up space and I would sell them for cheap, $400 plus shipping and I could include the thin tape and stuff to make them all look like Fuchs, or I could return that one wheel to black.
Front 8x18 ET 57 Back 9x18 ET 43 |

Guess shipping to 84120? (Or where are you shopping from? ) Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk |

I'm told that it's easier to find sticky shoes in a 17, than 18. Anyone confirm or deny? But let's see those pics.... maybe they're my new street wheels? Haha Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk |

For example, in 17s you might run: 225/45/17 on the front 17x7 wheel 255/40/17 on the rear 17x8.5 wheel Stock 18 sizes on these wheels would be: 225/40/18 on the front 18x8 wheel - the 8" wide wheel could support this width better than the 17x7 265/35/18 on the rear 18x9 whee - 10mm more width and the wheel is a half inch wider, about the same support as the 255 on the 17x8.5 But with the 18s you have more choices, could run 235/275 front/back - those sizes may be available in 17 but squeezing that 275 on the back 17x8.5 would be a tight fit :) Let me get some pictures. Here is the one I painted to match the Fuchs style: http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1468287725.jpg The others are just like this except they are all black on the faces. The inner barrels are still gray. Edit 2 - I would definitely consider the paint job on these wheels to be amateur level, looks good at 5 feet but not concourse level... |
I don't mean to post and disappear, haha. Thanks for all of the replies. I haven't purchased yet, but I'm being torn between a set of the Carrera 17's (FRONT RIM SIZE: 7x17 ET OFFSET 50-PART#: 99636212402, REAR RIM SIZE: 9x17 ET OFFSET 55 PART#: 99636212802) versus a set of 2000 Boxster BBS, 18" 2-pc wheels (Also staggered).
Any pros or cons to either? (Other than the 18's seem to cost more to put shoes on 'em?) |

If 18" are ok for you MY, consider total weight combined, wheel plus tire (many OEM wheels are heavy). Good luck :) |

Those 2000 Boxster 18" BBS wheels, if it is the ones I'm thinking of, look rally good, got a picture and the wheel sizes and offsets? |

Thanks to everyone who replied. Finding a set local meant I could just hit the easy button.
