They should come by late this week. I love the look of them - more modern but still very retro.

Super nice looking wheels - you just can't beat the 3 piece Speedline look on a 968. Be sure to report back with your impressions, wheel weights, and pics, once you get them on the car!

I'm not typically a fan of the black wheel, but those really do look nice. The 5-spoke design looks a lot like the OEMs, which I like, and the 3-piece brushed aluminum look is great. Looking forward to seeing the pics on the car.

Some Bridgestone Potenza's - not too pricey and supposed to wear good, be comfy and quiet.

Before you mount the tires please weigh them! I love them but heard they were heavier than my93 Cup (Cup 2)'s

I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

According to Pelican Parts catalog, "The 18" Veloce 3.6 wheels are 1-piece low-pressure cast and weigh about 22.5 pounds (front) and 25.5 pound (rear)."
