Wheels for 996 c4

Ok I have been looking for rims and came across these on Ebay. They are made by euro-tech who I have never heard of. I like this style and was wondering if anyone has purchased these or know if they are available in another brandName:  porsche-312-1.jpg

i wouldnt do those. see how the spokes curve out and then back in? makes it look kinda cheapy. basically they are ssr gt knock off's. I would do the same design with flatter spokes, gives you a more "true lip" I am in the same boat right now too. shopping for wheels. my car is on jackstands.

I was a little worried about the quality also. I want to keep to the 18s but there isnt a whole lot out there in the staggered. I looked at the victor rims and they were just ok.

I am down in Miami and saw a 996 with the BBS rims like I posted above. My wife couldn't drag me away from the car.. It looked mint with the stainless lip... He painted the spokes to match the car and they looked pretty awesome...I think I am going to order a set of these and try them... I can always flip them on ebay if I really hate the way they look on my car....
