Description:
|
These Wheels are RH RAU. They are 20's and I have Michelin PS2 tires on them (The same tires most of you have that came stock with the cayman. Although some of you may have gotten stuck with the Conti's). For those of you not that familiar with performance tires, the PS2's are preferred by most and have an excellent record. The size of the tires are as follows: Front= 245/30 20 Rear= 285/30 20. These measurements are well within the aspect ratio of the OEM wheels and tires and have perfromed flawlessly for me. The actual wheel sizes are Front= 20 X 8.5 Rear= 20 X10. The RAU's are a two peice barrel wheel which adds strength without adding alot of extra weight. They are a 2 peice wheel and the outer polished lip is actually replaceable if it ever sustained any damage. The offset and clearance of the brakes is excellent for the caymans esthetics. They do not need spacers and fill up the wheel well nicely. I have dropped my car with Eibach Pro Kit springs and have never had them rub. The center caps are custom made and have the porsche emblem on the outside which provided a classy touch.
The wheels and tires were driven on for about 2500 miles if that, tons of tread left. Mostly city, some highway but never on the track. They have never seen snow or mud. I have taken very good care of them and they are not damaged. These wheels and tires are in almost new condition. One wheel has a small paint chip and 2 other small scratches. Here is a link that shows the wheels and the chip and 2 scratches. They are very minor and are not noticeable when you stand back and look at them.

I bought the Wheelset and tires from GMP Performance in Charlotte, North Caroina and they have been hunter road force balanced. They will need to be balanced again more than likely after shipping
This is a link to the GMP site

You can see that they retail from GMP for $835 for the front and $892 for the rears.
The tires retail at TireRack for $372 fronts and $383 rears. The custom caps ran me about $260. the chrome porsche bolts were $200. (a little less than what you pay if you get them from Boothe).
I am not including the bolts with these wheels because I liked the polished bolts and used them in place of the OEM unpolished bolts that came with my cayman. OEM bolts will work on these and if you want polished bolts you can get them from sponsors or the dealership.
Altogether this wheelset cost over $5000.
Starting bid is $2400.00. After auction payment can be by paypal or check. Buyer is responsible for shipping.
