I disagree. Had RS98's on my -06 and the rear has a 4" deep lip. Best I can tell the rear is pictured in the OP and it has no lip at all.

Sandwedge: I had that same thought looking at the OP photo, it does look like the rear, and the rear RS98s do have a fat lip, so I would like to recant my agreement from earlier, and submit that they are likely the Champion RS171.



Anyone else?

RS171s

I can confirm they are Champion RS171s as I have them on my RUF R-Kompressor. RS98s have a recessed flat face and polished lip, wheras the RS171s have spokes that curve out from the center to a flush face - rears are absolutely gorgeous, 2nd only to Champion's own Turbo S RSR wheels which have a similar shape but are wider and center-lock, accentuating the curved twin forks.

John at Wheel Enhancement or Tom at Champion can hook you up.

Those Turbo S RSR wheels look awesome.

Slipped off the thread and into a Turbo S RSR hole on the internet.


Those wheels are awesome with the curved forks.

I like big dish and I cannot lie.


Holy thread revival Batman - 7 plus years old.

Your car looks great though.

Anyone else reading this, I custom polished and clear powdercoated my rs171s shown below and they're currently for sale.

Odd, I didn;t post this in this thread. Rather in the one about powder-coating RS98's.

Strange.
