Identifying size for 18-inch Turbo wheels (Technologie wheels): General

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2004 Porsche Boxster, 2003 Porsche Boxster, 2002 Porsche Boxster, 2001 Porsche Boxster, and 2000 Porsche Boxster. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Identifying 18-inch Turbo wheels (Technologie wheels / hollow spoke wheels) with the dimensions 9J x 18 RO 52 and 10J x 18 RO 65 (RO= Rim Offset) is only possible when the wheels are disassembled.

These wheels can also be fitted on the 911 Carrera (993 series) and the 911 Carrera (996 series).

The basic difference between Turbo wheels (Technologie wheels / hollow spoke wheels) and Turbo Look wheels (Turbolook Design wheels) is their valves:

Turbo wheel: screwed-in steel valve

Turbo Look wheel: rubber valve
