SOLD: Fikse Profil 13 18x8.5 / 18x11 997 offsets

SOLD for $5k

2 448911 18" Profil 13 Radial Spoke F734A11-4694 - Approx. 19 lbs each.
Front = 8.5 X 18, +51mm Offset, List Price = $1,187.00 Each

2 448911 18" Profil 13 Radial Spoke F734A11-4694 - Approx. 20 lbs each.
Rear = 11.0 X 18, +57mm Offset, List Price = $1,347.00 Each

4 300803 Finish Race Satin clear anodized (whole wheel), $85.00 Each

Total cost of Wheels was $5408 plus shipping.

Toyo RA-1 in 245 front and 305 rear were $1200 plus shipping. Tread depth is 6/32.

As you may know, there are no discounts on Fikse wheels. That being said, I’ll take less because this set-up is not brand new (though you would be hard pressed to tell - they are perfect). The tires are finally “ready” for use (should have had them shaved – but these are now "just right"). These wheels and tires saw 2 DEs - one at Watkins Glen and one at Lime Rock Park.

Perfect wheel / tire combination for 997, 997S, 997 GT3, RS with spacers, etc. May also work with other models - up to you to confirm...

Total cost with shipping and mounting / balancing was about $7000 with shipping. Priced at $5000 OBO plus shipping so it’s like you are getting tires and mounting / balancing for free.

Local pick-up preferred in Central CT, but will ship at buyer’s expense.

Reason for sale? I bought a 92 C2 DE car...

Smart move to pick up a dedicated DE car. Next you'll be looking for trailers and towrigs. Good luck on the sale

c2mojo is infamous around these parts
Dreams wheels

Too bad the rears look to be too aggressive of an offset for me.

Back from my trip - sorry to have delayed some responses to PMs.

To answer a few questions - when I ordered these wheels, it was about a 3 month wait to have them built and shipped. So by purchasing this set not only do you save $2000, you also save about 3 months. There is zero damage to the wheels - they are "as new". The tires have exactly 2 DEs on them (4 days total), which means 16 heat cycles. Current tread depth is 6/32 - they have plenty of life left and are just now running perfectly (should have shaved them, irrelevant now).
