I've damaged one of my wheels on my 993 and I would like to buy just one rear 17" Sport Classic wheel.

I'm not too bothered if it's used or new. Any that I've seen are for a set of four and I only need one.

Any ideas?

I would start looking in breakers yards. Douglas Valley would be a good starting place, though certainly not a popular one on PH.

Each to their own I suppose, although I like the way that they fill the wheel arches, and the car came with them from the factory.

[While the description says set of 4, you can go to the bottom and change the quantities to add a single wheel to your basket. One rear apparently £320]

I like them but I'm a bit biased. When I bought my 993 the owner offered me the car with the Sport Classics already fitted or the Turbo twist wheels he'd taken off. I was tempted to go for the twists as they were original until he pointed out that Sport Classics were an option when the car was new. Went with the Sport Classics and always felt they suit the car quite nicely.

Looks like they are still available from Porsche , around £320 inc vat , worth taking the wheel off and giving the dealer the part number from the rear of it , may be 99336212851.

Try Brian at Jasmine Porschalink as well. Both firms will post out wheels.
