I am looking to buy wheels for my 1988 turbo porsche. I know a wheel compnay called RH-Wheel sell the 3.6 wheel (3 piece wheel), but I wanted to shop around first. I also want to get rid of my Fuch wheels since the largest tire size I can put on them are 245 which do me no good.
Any suggestions?

 

I would highly recomment Fikse wheels. I have them on my 85. I would also suggest you call the people at Wheel Enhancement in West Los Angeles. They are really experts on what will and will not work. I have been using them for all my cars for 20 years. They specialize in Porsches and Bimmers. Either Alan or Dan are great. Check out their selection on the internet. You can trust them to be honest and have the best prices. Do not go for these cheap bargain basement wheels that only look good, they aren't trustworthy at high speeds. Stick with a known brand. BBS doesn't make but one wheel that will fit you car without spacers and you don't want to have to use spacers. Fikse can build wheels specifically for you car that doesn't require spacers. Check out Fikse.com. Kinesis and HRE are also really excellent wheels. Wheel Enhancement has them all on their website. None of them are cheap but worth the price. Wheel Enhancement will give you about $1200 trade in on you Fuchs if they are not bent. Good luck

 

GMP Performance are selling the RH 3.6 sets for about $3500 - you won't find the original speedlines for much less than $6000.... There is a company in the UK selling "veloce 3.6" wheels for about $2000 per set, though I believe that they are one piece wheels with fake bolts & the shipping would be expensive. They still look nice though. You can find their ad in any of the UK based Porsche magazines.

 

I know several shops that have stopped carrying RH 3.6's as they are fragile and bend very easy. They sure look good however. I almost bought a set and was talked out of doing so.

 

Booyakka-Do you still have the stock 930 turbo exhaust for sale?

 

Yes I do... Interested?

Here is a pic of my 964 with 18" RH. These wheels are great and I have never had a problem with them. I bought them from Danny at LA Autosport (formerly up on 3 racing). Very professional and great price. Tell him you saw Dan from Vegas' car.
