Hi,
Jasmine normally do these wheels either new or second hand with or without tyres.
I assume you want the 18" ones which can be front 7.5 or 8.0 X 18 X ET50 offset fitted with 225/40/18 and rears 10 X 18 X ET65 offset fitted with 265/35/18 tyres.
You can also get aftermarket ones from Design 911 or Porscheshop.
e bay or Pistonheads have some for sale most of the time, buyer beware check before purchasing that they are in good condition as having them refurbed can cost up to 375 BP for 4
The original Porsche ones are best.
You will need to make sure your car is fitted with the steering rack brace + bolts, this can be purchased from any Porsche dealer and is not hard to fit and can be obtained at a very good price.
good luck[8D]
