Why yes I am, thanks for asking. fyi a local Porsche shop I patronize has expressed interest for a customer looking for a spare set of track wheels for his 993. I can keep you informed if you like~

The car in my avatar is my S2 with it's previous 18" Cup 2 replicas. Car looked great, but they were too heavy. I'd definitely recommend the 17" oem's over them along with the factory D90's. The car feels a lot better actually with the 16"s.

Crap I know of a set of these locally as well. Too many decisions!

+1?

Nice to keep it original with low mileage like you have.
