964 "Cup" style wheels on a 986?

Hi folks,

I was watching that video of Frank Stephensen discussing the 986 and there was a brief image shown of the clay 986 concept wearing 964 cup wheels. I actually really like these wheels generally and was wondering if anyone has ever had them or seen them on a 986? Pictures would be great! I saw that pelican parts sells a replica of those wheels for something like $250/ea which is a total bargain in the 5x130 wheel world.



I know they're "only" 17", but they just have such a crisp and purposeful look as Porsche OEM wheels tend to have. I actually like my 17" Boxster twists (or whatever they are called) but I really love how the 964s look on the cups.

edit: Here is the link to the reps:

17 x 7.5, +52mm. Stock wheels I believe are 17 x 7, =55mm. Can somebody who is more wheel literate than me say whether or not that works? Seems like it should, offset is basically the same and the stock wheels leave a lot of room to the outside face of the fenders. edit 2: Oops, that's just the front. The rears would be 17 x 9, +47
