Sure look like the wheels a friends uses on his 997.2 GT3RS. ForgeLine is good stuff. Unless they are less than $1260, go to ForgeLine direct.

i have been using them as track wheels for about 3 yrs now. Excellent wheel, strong and reasonably light. I had some bolts come loose , caught them in time and then used locktite to make sure they didn't come loose again. i highly recommend them as well as the company.

Thanks all. Any idea what the weight per wheel might be?

I have a set of Forgeline wheels on my RS that I track. They are so much lighter than the two set of BBS wheels that I have. I'll mount the R6s on them to run my hot laps.

They're great but expensive and seem like overkill if only a track car.

I am a big fan of Forgeline. One of two american wheel companies that I would trust for track use (HRE being the other)

I hate to do this shameless plug but if you are going to spend that kind of money you should consider my BBS Motorsports wheels that I'm selling. Definitely a step up from Forgeline...

I have a set of the ZX3R for my E92. Light, strong, and pretty.
My 18x10 were 20.6 lbs each.

For a while, these were the only 18" wheels that cleared 380 Brembos.
