I nearly bought a mint set last year with michelin tyres for less than £1,500, still beat myself about it.

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.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

So I don't have any beef with Matthew, who seems to have fallen foul of Porsche's Marketing Department. FAKE ENGINE SOUNDS! There are some 996 sounds in there but most of the time it sounds like some american muscle car (not sure which one).

POST 2Original post

Stock engine noise sound fx probably. Fuchs wheels look the part on any 911 generation though. 'High-strength aluminium' no less!

POST 3Original post

I have always wanted a pair of Fuchs on my C4S, I think they look great. I nearly bought a mint set last year with michelin tyres for less than £1,500, still beat myself about it.

POST 5Original post

Fuchs wheels are notoriously expensive. Even owning 2 is considered a prestigious amount. The trick is to get one front and one rear so that at least the car looks good from one side.

So is Porsche officially now offering genuine new Fuchs wheels for a 996, and if so, how much for a set?
