Default Are these Turbo IIs genuine or not?

I was looking to replace my wheels with a set of Turbo IIs, I know they have them for the Cayenne and the Panamera, but the Panamera is a different offset, size, strength etc.

So I saw these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/38420857869...Bk9SR4Lf7v_kYA

However on the inside it is different than I was expecting, I was expecting more like the part numbers cast on the inside of the spokes, not the hub.

I seem to recall there were forged and cast versions?

I can't tell you if the ones in the ad are real, forged or cast but I have a brand new extra set in my garage and there are no number etchings on the hub. Only on the insides of the spokes and the part number 958.362.140.09A1 is printed along with the size, etc. on the inside of the barrel of the wheel.

Interesting! It's been years since I looked. Now I need to dig more.

If you ever want to sell your set let me know!

The backsides of the spoke do not look OEM to me. Porsche's are, normally, concave (with the part number inset).

If it were me, I'd pass.

Yep, I think they would look more like this:

Those are factory wheels!

7P 560 1025M

If you like the price, get them. They are getting harder to find.
