I recently wrapped my 996 cabrio. I�m now looking for new wheels, most likely 19�. Nothing too flashy, but not Porsche ones. Loved the idea of getting Rotiform TUF-R but all are you they�re not available for the 996. See pictures of the car on its stock wheels below. Any recommendations? Need to be ones available in the UK.

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.

The wheels you have are by far the best looking 996 narrowbody wheels in my opinion. Before replacing them you might try a matte bronze plastidip, I think that would look the bomb.

I agree and... I agree !
I�m a fan of GT3 wheels but you have some of the nicer ones. OZs are nice too.
Paint yours they are perfect in looks and brake cooling

I do like that! Though for my cars colour I might go for some kind of anthracite colour. Is the car lowered at all? The stance looks nicely aggressive.
Keep in mind that Porsche OEM wheels, while a bit heavier than some of the better aftermarket wheels, are designed to hold up better to the roads. Lightweight aluminum wheels tend to bend and crack easier, particularly when it comes to potholes. Yes, OEM wheels bend and crack, too, but are apt to be more robust for daily driving. The larger the wheel with smaller tire profiles exasperate the problem.

looks great! What are the sizes?

PS4S 225/40 and 285/35. 12MM Front and 17MM Rear spacers.
Those 5 spoke wheels are one of the best�I traded them and went Gt3 route. No regrets other than Gt3 are considerably heavier.

Proof that an 18-in wheel is so right on these cars. This wheel especially. They are under appreciated. Does Plasti dip bronze look this good?
