These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hoping for some advice on finding good condition Turbo Twist wheels for a 996 Turbo. My intention is to replace aftermarket 19" wheels with 18" OEM wheels. Not sure if I should go hollow-spoke or solid spoke, what the correct part numbers are and whether powder coated wheels are significantly better than painted wheels? Also want to know what the best sources for used wheels are and which ones to avoid. Any advice would be appreciated.

A "WTB" post on the "Porsche Boxster, Cayman, 996, 997 Parts For Sale & Wanted" Pelican forum https://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-boxster-cayman-996-997-parts-sale-wanted/

POST 4Original post

I have a set of own 996 Tbo wheels available. Pm for info . I don’t think they make a hollow spike wheel for those: imo best to get a painted wheel as powder coat retains heat more so, and is also difficult to repair scratches w any simple color matching of paint , one must start over and refinish the entire wheel.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I found a nice set of Hollow Spoke Turbo Twist wheels in the Rennlist Classified ads. Looking forward to getting them on the car. Thanks to everyone who replied to my original post.
