@URS6 Thank You for reaching out.
This is my second vehicle and has ever been in snow. The current snow tires are mounted on rare OEM Porsche Hollow Spokes with specific offsets for Snow Tires .
I do have a set of Turbo Twists Wheels with Bridgestones mounted however they are due for replacement and shall be part of the vehicle sale
@Ehrenbragg Thank You for your kind words.
This specific 996 TT is truly exceptional given its fully stock OEM.
@jaynar yes. Some undercarriage photos on a northern car would be helpful.
Can we see some of those receipts? Coolant lines pinned? That coolant expansion tank is on its last leg. Undercarriage photos? Clutch ever done? First thing I’d do is chuck those tires for some proper Michelin’s.
So it currently has winter tires on it. Any other wheels/tires come with it? Did it see a lot of snow?
Bid in the amount of $20,000
What a beauty - this car is the biggest bargain in the Porsche world these days!
