Anyone Know What Rims These Are?
Okay, so I went in search of these rims, I was told that these were the TechArt, but the ones shown have 4 small rivets between the spokes. Other than that they look just like the TechArt ones. So my question now is, does anyone know what rims these really are? Brand? Make?

Those are either NAD's, TSW's, or Victor Equipments. They all make a version similar, but not identical to the Techart. Happy hunting!

I like those. But they look to much like the ones I currently have. Your tires still don't come out far enough to the edge of the lip. That bothers me too. I preffer these for my next set of rims.

I am trying to see if i can get the lip of the wheel to stick out 1/2" beyond the tire (Just kidding). Those look good, send pictures when they are on your car.

never understood this.

Do you have pictures?
I found these wheels (WORK -RKF) at wheelenhancement.com, but found out they were over $3K for a set of 19s and that's not including tires.

tires too small
Dr Kill
if those are your rims and tires, the tires look too narrow for that rim. Couldnt you afford a wider tire? what size tire is that?
I mean no offense..
by the way do you like them? I was looking at those also, and also the ones in black...
Also did you need a spacer for the back?

Wheels?
To porsche986spyder,
Hi, I am new to the forum, and this is my fist post, but... I saw your plea for help with these wheels and I think I know what they are. I was looking at these too for my Boxster and found them, only in silver, but I know for the amount of money they will cost you should be able to order them in puke green if your heart desires. The only problem I foresee is finding them here in the states or someone who imports them at a reasonable price. GMPPerformance.com has them starting at $1,400 ea....Ouch! I am going to have to save my penny's for a while. Anyway, good luck and if you do order some please let me know how it goes and where you end up getting them from. Not to mention some good pictures.
