This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

Yeah, I noticed the same thing. I have the factory option turbo look wheels on my '00, and they don't have the flat surfaces and hard edges of that wheel.
I really liked them at first, but find myself thinking about swapping them out sometimes, now. Maybe hanging out on this board too much...
Too clear up the various twist styles...
Turbo Look/Technology (Technology was original hollow spoke wheel)
Debuted on the 993 Turbo, was popular option on 996s and Boxsters.
Turbo II
Debuted on 996 Turbo (hollow spoke) and later as standard on C4S. A version to fit narrow 996s and Boxsters was also later available.
Carrera
Debuted on 996 Carrera, but was probably best know as a popular option for early Boxsters.
Boxster S
Debuted on 2000 Boxster S and is only occassionally seen elsewhere.
SportTechno
I believe this was always only an optional wheel for the 996. There is also a 20" version for the Cayenne.
HTH
I traded up from 17'' Carrera wheels to 18'' Turbo Look/Technology wheels last year but would offer them for a trade to get lighter wheels. They look good but they are also heavy. As I go more and more on the track with my car, I'm interested in reducing weight.
