Thank you for all the orders guys!

I am torn between a set in the 18 x 9.5/12 fitment or the 19 x 8.5/11......so I have a 996 C4S widebody in Lapis Blue Metallic. I'm thinking gunmetal but may also go piano or matte black. Something different and edgy. Any suggestions? Please PM me when you can with prices and suggestions. Thanks.

 

The great thing is that they're custom fit for your vehicle in either the 18" or 19" fitments so we know they're going to look and fit great on your Porsche!

I'll send over a PM with some more info!

 

I need the same... Looking to buy right now

 

Check out my thread "fitting 335's on a 996tt" I posted a few pics of the Gunmetal 18X12s. I love the look, weight, and price of these!

 

You have a PM coming your way!

335s on the back! That's awesome!

I bet it looks really meaty from the backside.

 

I have called and emailed about the status of my order, but no reply?

 

Weights:
18x8.5 ET48 - 17.6 Lbs.
18x9.5 ET48 - 18.4 Lbs. my wheel 18x9(40)=20.8lbs
18x10 ET4 18x12 ET68 - 20.0 Lbs 18x11(35)=22.6

Anyone actually weigh their wheels before mounting tires?
So as of right now per there wheels weights I am way too heavy based on my calculations I am roughly 10lbs more then anticipated, not happy with that. Are my offsets adding all of this weight? Please let me know
.

 

Weights do vary depending on the offset of the wheel. A lower offset wheel has more backspacing thus increasing weight. A higher offset wheel has less backspacing thus decreasing weight.

 

That should be explained to customers because at some point the wheels become not light weight. In general they look good but being 19lbs per wheel vs almost 23 is a HUGE difference.
18x9.5 ET48 - 18.4 Lbs(you list that) yet my 18x9 with 40 offset is 20.8 so you guys mean to tell me that a wheel that's .5" less in width and with 8mm bigger offset is 2.4lbs heavier. Is there a formula to this ??? Can you post a chart with all the widths and offsets you guys offer for F14's so we really know what they tip the scales at?
Please explain my ignorance about wheels i would just like a more clear answer rather then there is more meat because of the offset scenario.

 

anyone?

 

when you say backspacing are you referring to the solid block that meets the hub is thicker therefor increasing weight?? Mounting tires this week for PCA event this weekend, rims look great, super light! Will definitely take pics!
