HELP! Identify wheel

I just picked up a Turbo with a set of aftermarket wheels. Could someone tell me who makes this wheel?

Exactly what I thought but it appears they only make fitments for the Cayenne?

I have never seen a justification for Cheap Copies of wheels on a high performance
Porsche. Only if you drive to and from the County Club and Dinner Circuit.

Purchase ONLY the highest Quality wheels that are TUV approved or the Top Brands
(like what wheel enhancement sells). I have bought from Alan and am always satisfied.

Good luck

I also do not like the aftermarket Shiny wheel bolts ("lug bolts").

There is only one good source of those that I know of: Ralph Booth Design

Couldn't agree more... that's one of the reasons I was trying to determine what these wheels were.
