Yes, these are the ones on e-bay, BUT he only has a limited few left. So, I guess you could say they are extremely rare, but I said one offs because they were custom drilled. I first saw them a few weeks ago and noticed the name RUFF RACING and tried to find them directly through the company STATUS WHEELShttp://www.statuswheels.com/wheels/wheels.php?wheel_id=44&brand_id=2 who is the manufacture of RUFF RACING and several other brands. They were the ones that told me they don't even make them for Porsche. When I told him that I saw some on e-bay, we both thought that they may be RUFF RACING knock-offs at first. When I told him the name and style, he told me that they discontinued the silver ones and only made them in Chrome, Black and Gun Metal Grey. I emailed the seller on e-bay and asked him if these were fake or knock offs and he told me how he got them because they were discontinued, but they were REAL RUFF RACING rims that were left over in the silver color and purchased the remaining staggard sets in inventory and had them drilled out for a few Porsche models. I checked his story out and it is true. I think he only has about 6 complete sets left. STATUS WHEELS sells them under a new model number R280 but they do not come in silver any longer, nor do they make them to fit any Porsche.
