Looking for something light, decent looking, and not too expensive. Anyone got suggestions?

 

The Porsche-specific Forgestars would probably be a good place to start.

Otherwise, honestly, maybe just watch the classifieds here like a hawk - you frequently see 996/7 WB 19's come up for sale, somewhere around 50% of new MSRP.

 

BBS CH-R would be my minimum

 

OZ Ultraleggera

 

Yup, there light, strong and not as expensive as many wheels out there.

Then my next favorite cheap wheel is a HRE.

 

Huh?

Nothing "cheap" about HRE's, price or otherwise.

 

Victor Zehn are nice and reasonable

 

Yes this is definitely the cheapest source for strong, relatively lightweight, inexpensive wheels.

 

Yes definitely! I've never heard HREs called "cheap!"

 

Stick with a good set of 18". The car doesn't handle as well with 19" and they are heavier. Tires are more expensive and your brakes and suspension wear out faster.

 

Avant Garde Rugers:





$1400 (and maybe less) for a shipped set. Light and strong.

 

i picked up a nice used set of cargraphic 19" wheels for $700. keep your eyes open, ive seen smoking deals on Iforged, and even champion wheels on here.

 

I guess my sence of humor was lost on a few of you. Edited for effect.

 

I have a set of 19 inch OZ black ultralaggera with Michelins PS2'S if you are interested.

 

+1

The lightest concave wheels available in the $1,000 range with proper aggressive offsets.
