Ah but are they the OEM ones that 'are 1/2" wider than normal Fuchs you can buy for Porsches'?

Those Sport Classics are about £10K a set from Porsche, so Design 911 price is good.

I've seen those too, forged as well! Are the oem sports classic wheels forged too? I’d hope so at that money.
I'm not sure if they're forged, they are a bit heavier than the genuine Fuchs but they are genuine Porsche as fitted to the 997 Sport Classic and made in Italy rather than Germany or China.The Fuchs wheels are forged, 10kg front and 11.5kg rear and a bit more expensive (from Design 911), but the reason I went for Sport Classic is the black gloss finish and polished rather than satin alloy rims.
Sports classic on a budget. The orange beading is interesting.
