Hi,
Can anyone conform what are the correct wheels for a 2003 996 Turbo please?

I went to see a car today and it appears to have solid spokes fitted although described as "genuine Turbo wheels".

I tried googleing but there was some conflicting info. some posts saying hollow spokes were an option?

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi.

The spokes are rounded front and rear on the true hollow spoke wheels. They should be fitted to all turbos except special order version like the Aero or GT2 style ones.

The non hollow spokes are ribbed on the rear.
 
Pics for reference. :thumb:

Front Hollows are 9.65kg vs 11.5kg for the Solids.
Rear Hollows are 11.9kg vs 14.5kg for the Solids.

Thanks, the car definitely has solid spoke wheels, how much can I expect to pay for hollow spokes?


Also any idea of the stock size for a 2003 Turbo? I think the ones fitted are 10"
 
Standard 996 Turbo sizes are as follows:

Front 8.0jx18" ET50 (Part no. 996.362.136.04)
Rears 11.0jx18" ET45 (Part No. 996.362.142.03 or 11)

Expect to pay circa £1k for a decent set without tyres.
