Looking for these "GT2" Wheels for a CS

I am looking for these wheels for my '07 Guards Red CS (if they exist for it). They are from a Red GT2 that was recently shown at the 2008 NY Auto show. I believe they're a new option for the GT2 this year:

Any help/insight is appreciated. Have any of you ordered these for your C/CS? If so, from where and how?

cheers,
-carsteve

They're not new, they are the standard wheels for a GT3. Here is a shot of the wheel of a GT3 at my local dealer...



I don't think they come in a size that would fit the Cayman, but you can always ask your dealer.

He is right the OEM ones are not built to fit a Cayman. However, there are a few wheel manufacturers out there that build copies to order.

There are a couple of our sponsors that sell these types of wheel as an aftermarket item. You might check with one of them if they can make one to fit the Cayman, if they don't have one already.

You might check with site sponsor Raderwerks - it looks like they have a replica wheel, but the rears seems a little big at 11" so you might want to contact them and see what other sizes they can get these in...
