Hot new wheel option: Victor Innsbruck

These were just released, not many sets out there yet, but they are FORGED, and light, a first for Victor, and they're pretty nice, and affordable.

What do you think?

More HRE P40 look-a-likes!!! But Victor is a reputable brand, and it's a proven popular design.

8 and 11" wide is their max width. I'ce rather have 8.5 and 11.5 width....or even better these in 18" with a 9 and 12" wide wheel.

Maybe I am wrong, these are "rotary forged" cast wheels, not real forged right?

Bur sure looks nice.

I bought a set of matte black for my 996 TT, 18x8 and 18x11. They weight 19 lb and 24.5lb. Not the 20 lb rear as some dealer claimed. My stock turbo rear is 26.5lb.

I got a great deal from tucker tire in laguna nigel in socal. $265 each OTD. 1900 OTD with V12 tires.

If anyone wants a set, I just took some 20 inch black Innsbrucks off my car. They have V12s on with some tread left. Two have some pretty good curb rash that will need refinishing. Any reasonable or unreasonable offers will be accepted....

(They're still sitting at my dealership, so can't post photos, but will pick them up soon...)

Are these better quality than the AG Ruger Mesh? These look like the Ruger's just without the concave and less aggressive offset. What would you guys prefer between the two wheel given the brands, quality and reputation?? I compared prices and they are right about the same for 19". It's a tough choice


Anyone have pics on a 997??

The Innsbruck is made by TSW. They are made in Taiwan IIRC. TSW is a big company that actually makes these wheels for other cars under a the name Nurburgring.

They are lighter than the Ruger mesh because they are "rotary forged" or "flow formed" or whatever you want to call it.

They are probably the cheapest decent wheels that you can get that are specifically made for P-cars. From what I've seen they are a little cheaper than the Rugers and Forgestar. They come in around the same price or just a little more than cheap cast wheels from China. They just don't have the "style" without the concave but is probably part of the reason they are lighter and maybe less expensive.

How do they compare in quality to the Forgestars which are also rotary forged?
