FS: Imola forged wheels, 997 and 996 nb fitment

UPDATE: Reduced to $600 - includes the full set of matching security lug bolts.

1-piece forged aluminum wheels, perfectly cherry, no marks, like new
19x8.5 and 19x10 - rears weigh 28lbs, fronts a few lbs less.
Offset: Front +46 / Rear +54 (Remember, the lower the positive offset number the farther outward they sit. Example, +46 sits 12mm farther outward than +58)

pm me if any interest, selling cheap.

$1000 for local pickup in West LA, or $1200 shipped within USA.
I will also include the full set of chromed security lug bolts and 2 removal sockets. Again, they are like new with zero marks. Tires are not included, just wheels / lugs / centers

Photos of wheels on a 2006 C2 Cabriolet:
The offsets are about perfect for NB cars. The rims come out to the fenders nicely without need for spacers.

I am lowering the price on the wheels to $800. There are few minor blems on two of the wheels that I noticed today. Minor and nothing you can see from more than 8" away (literally, and if you are looking for it) - but since they are less than perfect I think this is fair.

REDUCED TO $600!! Rears weigh 28lbs each, fronts a few lbs less. All boxed up and ready to ship, includes set of matching security lugs and lug tool.

These would paint up nicely, probably look good with black or anthracite on the spokes.

It really depends on where you go- Anywhere from $300 to $600. These wheels are a very open design and easy to paint, so probably on the lower end of cost.

Cost is also determined by type of paint, use of clearcoat, etc. - FastForwardWheels would probably have the definitive answer.

Beautiful wheels. Also, I wish they were 18"s. My 993 would ride too roughly.

What are the offsets, if I could ask?

No clue on the offsets, they come outward about 10mm farther than the standard 997 offsets on R and about 7mm farther outward on F. I believe standard 997 NB offsets are 48F and 67R..

Rough ride also depends on suspension and brand of tires. PS2's typically give a nice ride even with a lower profile.

I'm back in town as of this evening, those who wanted to come by and see the wheels shoot me a PM to arrange time this week.
