Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

21 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What's the consensus on MY02 (The narrow 5-spoke lightweight Carrera wheels) on a 996.1 (Fried eggs). I love the idea of super light wheels, but haven't seen this setup before. Does anybody have this setup so I could better visualize it?

POST 2Original post

Not a rare combo. I think it's one of the better wheel choices for the platform: looks OEM, the right size, light, OEM quality, and they're not that expensive I think :

POST 3Original post

Absolutely, yes! I can�t think of a better wheel set for our cars.

POST 6Original post

I love these wheels but they do bend easily in my experience.

POST 7Original post

Nah, I have 2 sets of these wheels and have used them for 22 years on the street and track. Never had any bending issues. They are light and strong.

POST 8Original post

Here's a 1/98 build. Way better than the 19s that came with the car.

POST 9Original post

My wheels have been on NYC roads at full speed and they’re still true

POST 10Original post

I recently picked up a set for my 99 996 C4 . Did some horse trading for them . I like the simple look of them , being lightweight and OEM is a bonus . And finally you are not going to find a wheel any easier to clean . Looking forward to getting them installed after my current tires get used up .

POST 11Original post

Absolutely agree. They are really easy to clean and give you a good view of the brakes.

lmfao you just like to argue, and you�re a know it all. Mom always told me no one likes know it alls. I�ll learn from you. I bent one of these going 40 when I hit a small pot hole. They bend easily.

This is the third thread in a week that you had a temper tantrum in. Give it a rest.

POST 14Original post

I agree with GC 996 . Mine have been great on my 964. And that's with some winter driving. But I did get in trouble once for dodging giant potholes and someone thought I might be under the influence. A good whack on a low profile tire would be hard for any wheel.

Ha Ha. Too funny, I actually ordered some yesterday.

POST 17Original post

Just put a set on my '99, huge improvement in looks and they're quite a bit lighter than the 17s.

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the photos everyone! This is all great and the cars look awesome with these wheels.

Similar to the Carrera 2's,,,, Carrera 3 wheels on my 2001...
