Oh man, left coast weather looks much more pleasant that what's going on here.
I dig the rims, I just got the same (non-chromed) ones last week, as you know. So are you pleased with WheelDynamics.net? They need to get some pix of our Boxsters on their site, they'd probably sell more of those rims. http://www.kryzak.com/storage/986-storagewheels.jpg Buy my old rims! |
thanks jeph, yea i met carlos from wheel dynamics ,nice guy...there wheels seem pretty sold and good quality and a good price.. so i am very happy so far.. :)
|
What did you pay for them? Did you get them with tires pre-mounted?

According to this page, $1299 for chrome. |
hi prok , jeph is right 1299 + tax so 1400... i bought the tires from tirerack and paid like 550 or 560 deliverd to my house... carlos at wheel dynamics had them mounted for me... :)
|
Any idea how heavy they are, who makes them and whether they are TUV, DOT or JIL approved?
|
The guy at Wheel Dynamics could certainly tell you this. He told me they were made in Italy like the rest of his look-alike Porsche wheels, so we know they're not cheap Chinese made rims.

Hey Jeph...
Those are great looking wheels; I've been considering those on a 987.
How much clearance is there between the rim and the shock? On my stock Boxster 9" rims I figure there is about 15mm or about 5/8" clearance. By my calculations, going with a 10" rims adds about 12mm to the inside of the wheel + plus the change in offset (+4mm) . That would seem to put the rim right up on the shock. I'd like to consider these wheels but want to avoid spacers if at all possible. Thanks Mike |
