Guys, I am helping to dispose of an old friend's estate, he had a rather nice 964 which is now sold and I'm trying to value two sets of wheels.

The first set are magnesium 17" cup 1 wheels which I believe would have been fitted to the RS model.

The second are BBS split rim 18" wheels which I believe are LM, which look like this:

Both sets have not been fitted since refurb, any advice much appreciated
Thanks
Gareth

What's the size on the LM's?

I am looking for a set for a wide body 993, so feel free to let me know.


Thanks

They don't look like LM's to me - possibly E28/88 ?

Cargraphic.

Not a great wheel compared to a BBS LM let alone an E88.

^ What he said

Cargraphic Racing, they weight about the same as the car, not in the same league as the BBS that have been mentioned, however I quite like them.

If the Cup’s are original and magnesium they will be worth a kings ransom to the right buyer.

£1k for the Cargraphics, £10K for the RS

Thanks for all the advice, I don't think the cup wheels are magnesium, the owner mentioned magnesium wheels a few years ago, and these had Mg cast into them, the part numbers show them as 7" fronts 8" rear 17" wheels.
I've still got some research to do on the split rims, again from old conversations I thought they were BBS, but it appears not!

Those are just the bog standard Cup 1 wheels that were an option fitted to later 964s. Might be worth £1500. Would be worth more if they were the more popular 9" rears.
