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

Sorry if this should be posted somewhere else. Now on that I need to replace my wheels, I thought these would be a good pick up if they fit. Please let me know. Porsche 911 18" Wheels and Tires http://reno.craigslist.org/wto/5899999854.html

POST 2Original post

You will need to ask the seller what the offsets are for a definitive answer. Also, what model 996 do you own?

I have an 02 C4 Cabrio

POST 4Original post

Yours can't be fixed? The photos didn't seem that bad.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The left rear I think so. The right rear, no. Left rear Left rear Right rear Right rear Right rear Right rear Right rear Right rear

POST 6Original post

Get a professional opinion before throwing in the towel and dropping a ton of dough on new wheels. Put the $$ saved toward an IMS upgrade.

POST 7Original post

Those wheels look like a bargain! You just need to double check the offset when you buy them. They should say 18x8 et50 and 18x10et65. They nah be a "j" or other random letters in there but that's what you are looking for. The 8's can be as low as an et45 and the 10's as low as and et50 and it will still work. If the 10'a are an et45, that means they are for a C4S or Turbo (widebody) and won't work for you.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 13786785

thanks Slakker. Very helpful information. I will find out!

POST 9Original post

Hawk, another side note... those wheels in the craigslist ad definitely look repainted... and repainted with the wrong color of silver. Porsche uses a unique tone of silver for their wheels that is common with European sports cars. It looks like the seller just painted them with standard silver metallic.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the info. If I do buy them I would paint them gloss black anyway. Good looking out! Seller got back to me and said 18x8.5 ET52, 18x10. ET47

POST 11Original post

Bummer. Probably best to keep looking. Even though it's only 3mm, I haven't heard of anyone having success below ET50 on the rear.

POST 12Original post

Are you keeping the Hankook's? A lot of guys don't like the V12 Ventus' but I always thought they were a good tire for the $$$.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
