Default Porsche Turbo Alloys

Genuine 18" Turbo alloys.

8j Fronts 225/40/18 Bridgestone Potenza S02 (plenty of tread)
11j Rears 295/30/18 Bridgestone Potenza S02A (on wear markers)

Near perfect condition, only mark I have found is where someone has caught the socket on the alloy near the bolt hole on one alloy but that really is hard to see, I'll get a picture of that when I take my good camera to the unit.

They also come complete with the turbo centre caps (not pictured) and the alloys themselves were removed from a 2004 911.

Any further questions please ask, more pictures coming soon

Priced at £750ono

Tyres for Porsche should always be N-marked (N1-N4). 996 Turbo requires N3.

Sorry, correct. But Porsche "recommend" N3 to 996 Turbo. At least what I have read.

if these are genuine turbo wheels off a 996 Turbo thats a bargain price!

dont confuse them with the identical looking but solid spoke 996 C4S wheels....

the genuine Turbos have hollow spokes.

Porsche do not specify which no. Comes after the n rating other than the fact they recommend all 4 to be matching.

They were removed off this car :





They are genuine wheels and were standard fitment on this car from what I believe.

The talk about N3 tyres only is wrong! Bridgestone potenza will properly be N0 which is perfect!! (this will on the tyre in small font, Imoh the best and a pain to fit, I know this for a fact! (I'm a tech at Porsche!)

Why do they not look genuine ?

I can get the numbers off the inside of them if you would like to cross reference them.

Sorry for confusion mate, didn't realise it was you selling the wheels! The wheels for sale are 100% gen... No question asked!!!! I though u were saying the wheels on the turbo s in picture were genuine, which of course are not! But I'm guessing you just showing the car the alloys were from! That's fine carry on lol ignore me sorry mate!
