If you watch ebay for a while, you should be able to find a nice set of used wheels for your 996 for about $2,000.
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.

i love the k19's in black... but at around $1100-1200 a wheel, that's way more than i wanted to spend. can anyone recommend something else thats very similar but more affordable? i want a set of 19 inchers for my '01 996 coupe. used is okay too. thanks
not to mention...Since Lexani bought Kinesis they no longer make that style of wheel...so even if you found one from someone's inventory if anything ever happened to it you could not get a replacement. Best to choose another wheel.
Forgeline makes wheels along the lines of Kinesis...but they're not any cheaper.
Try looking at the new Axis wheels for Porsche. Dan @ VividRacing carries them, inexpensive and nice looking in all black with your color choice of rim stripe.

Mike, the wheel pictured is mine. I paid $1,759. for the set on ebay a few months ago. I had to have two of them powdercoated (to match the other two) at a cost of about $400. I was able to buy a Kinesis center cap from Wheel Enhancement for $15.
If you watch ebay for a while, you should be able to find a nice set of used wheels for your 996 for about $2,000. I saw great deals on Fiske wheels, BBS, and OEM Sportdesign. I also suggest keeping an eye on the classified ads here, 6 speed, and Pelican. Good luck.
Tire Rack has these SSR GT10's on sale:
fronts: 19x8 $299 each (originally $759) 25.6 lbs offset-49mm
rears: 19x10 $499 each (originally 819 each) 26.9 lbs offset-62mm
I just bought these wheels from red996... I'm going to powdercoat them either flat black or some sort of dark grey/titanium, not sure yet. I'll post pics when it's all done.
I received these wheels and had them powdercoated black.
The coater told me that i should probably re-apply some sealant to the wheels since the heat during the powdercoating process could weaken it. These are three piece wheels, so the seam is filled with some sort of sealant.
Does anyone know what type I should use for this purpose? Thanks.
