It is not the VS-XX - it is the Brombacher - slightly different in design. Or the Speedart Cross Racing Wheels.

Call it what you want, Rennworx RPM, Brombacher - either way, it's a VS-XX with a larger center for the Porsche bolt pattern. FWIW, original Brombacher has a step lip.

20x8.5 and 20x12 - those are SpeedArts on the posted pic.

offsets are 44mm in the rear and I think the same in the front. SpeedArt won't give up their offsets.

Mine are the same but with a 50mm offset in the front/back and I used a 7mm spacer front/rear.

I didn't know at the time of ordering they had that offset until it was too late.

All Work mesh design wheels for Porsche are Brombacher Series wheels. They are either normal, what we call the RPM http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...lDetail&id=144 or full reverse, what we call RXX http://www.wheelenhancement.com/inde...lDetail&id=143 There is a 12x20 in a +44mm offset available which fits very nicely on the rear of 997 wide body cars.

i have the brombachers and ordered them from alan baylis for my 996 c4s. fantastic wheels, the best looking flat lip wheels today. no spacers on mine. perfect fitment. btw, brombachers and vs-xx are the same thing, just for the German auto market they renamed them to set it apart.

just be patient with them since you likely have to order them from japan from scratch.
