Hi... hope somebody of you can answer this very specific question. Had to replace my OE Speedline wheels after an accident with my Maserati Ghibli Cup. Since Speedline has stopped wheel production about 2 years ago I thought myself lucky to find a shop clearing it's remaining inventory of Speedline wheels. Unfortunately they managed to send me one wheel in 10x17 and the other one in 11x17. No replacement is possible as they sold everything they had. However they told me that Speedline rims where produced by OZ and were used in other OZ wheels. It has been very difficult to get any information from OZ.
The wheel is a 3-piece forged, handpolished model (Speedline 2308 SC) and was also used on a number of Porsche 964/993 models. The ones I know are 993 RS, 964 RS 3.8 and 964 Turbo S (in 18"). I suppose it was optional for other models.

Does anybody
a) Know if the OZ story above is true
b) Have an idea where else to get that 10x17 rim (btw I could offer in exchange the 11x17 rim which is the fitting rear wheel size for the 911)

Thanks for any answers!

Sorry I can't answer too many of your questions.

I can tell you that 993 RS 18' wheels are 10" on the rear, the 11" would have to go on a Turbo bodied car.

I had the speedlines on my 993 refurbished by;

They may be able to get hold of a wheel for you.
