Fly, Have you a contact name at Carlsen Porsche?

Sunset Porsche, Oregon just quoted me :

1463.43 Fronts each and 1680.23 Rears each....also mentioned only black or orange available.

Thanks in advance.

thanks for all the compliments. And yes i do share the technical data, i don't care if others do the same - i guess i prefer that we all share data and not hog it for ourselves...

cheers,

Fly.
Very nice and with a clean factory look
What suspension do you have and how much lower than stock USA ride height is it. Did you roll your rear fender lips?

I had some minor rubbing with 315 rears. You can carefully adjust/bend the rear inner fender bracket (next to the intercooler hose)to get .25-.75 inch of of extra inner clearance.

Sunset revised prices to 6,287 + tax for the set, also called Carlsen Porsche they quoted a slightly higher price....Fly, your buy at 3400 is a smokin price !!!

I love the way they look, just gorgeous in every way and they still give the stock look. I always thought they looked great and I myself wated to get a set about 6 months ago, the guy that was helping me said I would need huge spacers to make them work so I changed my mind, I think he was thinking 996GT3 or 997GT3. If he knew about the 997GT3RS off-set he could have sold me a set then. Anyway great decision to go with these. By the way I love the front bumper as well, What is it? Where did you get it from? Thanks a bunch...

Price update....see response from Carlsen Porsche.....Fly you got the deal of the year!!

Quote:
Unfortunately Mark, that set was sold and Porsche has since raised prices greatly on those wheeels. Not to mention the ad expired months ago. Now you are looking at $6300.00 for the set.

Hey guys... I have a 997 GT3 customer who just bought new wheels and wants to sell his factory ones. Same as post 1 here. Car has 1000 miles on it and wheels are mint. No tires. 19x8.5 and 19x12. If you are interested in the wheels for your 996TT, PM me, email me, or call me.

Thanks
Dan

Are they GT3 or GT3RS? The ones that fit the 996tt properly are the GT3RS wheels.
