Retail is 1595.00 each wheel. Call Colin at Cantrell and he can get you your cost. I can only quote retail.
Exact weights for 18" setup in the C90
F 19lbs 14 oz
R 21lbs 2 oz

Ok, I like the C90's and the C97's. What kind of pricing are we talking about and what type of weight are we talking about in 18" fitments.

A competition wheel with some nice looks to it.

Nice! I'm headed over to Cantrell right now.

One last question, is this a new rim or an old rim? How come it's not up on the site?

Thanks,
Seth.

Yes, Colin hadn't heard of the new series yet, but sounded excited by them. I'm certain he will get in touch with you shortly.

I would go for anything race proven: BBS, OZ, Cargraphic etc...

That's what i thought. Even an 18in wheel with a 17in barrel will fit over a 350mm rotor. How big are your rotors?

I do believe the TE37 are one of the lightest and strongest wheels for 996.

Volk TE37. 1 piece forged wheel. 18x8.5 and 18x11. Front is about 17lbs and rear about 19lbs i believe. A set of 4 runs you around $2600. I custom powdercoated these black. I run 19's now. Very strong and great for track or street.

You might also consider CCW C14s.

i love the machining done on the spokes on the C90 series.... Nice thing about the c-series wheel is that you can clear any brakes you throw at them... PCCBs on a 997GT3? No worries. GTR brakes on a 996TT. Check/done and they all the info for that too.
