They look Speedlines to me, as fitted to the RS. You'll need to take them off to check for a Porsche part number to know whether they are oem or replicas.
 


They don't look like 993 RS speedlines to me. Think it's more likely they're after market but possibly still speedlines?

 
They are if i recall eta/beta wheels ,I'm not sure what brand they are marketed under?

Cj...........
 
Yeah not RS Speedlines or copies, never seen them with that "twist" before.

Speedlines don't have the "˜twist'[;)] Look like "˜after-market' of some description.
 


I have a few "curb" issues with the wheels......

What I need is a relatively cheap repair and refurb and to sell them on (I have the original receipt for my wheels £3175 including 2 tyres - done prior to my ownership)

Then invest in a new (non-split rim) !!!

How much do you think I would get for refurbed wheels ?

Any other suggestions gladly welcomed !!!

Regards

+1, defo not RS Speedlines... there is a similar set for sale on Pistonheads
 
Well there's your first issue if you intend to sell them on; a proper split/dismantle refurb or just a quick spray over, rim nuts and all! I've no idea what they could be worth I'm afraid but I certainly avoided cars with all-over split resprays when I bought my Targa (most of which come with 17" 2-piece rims of course). If they use acid in the refurb process you can guarantee some will get past the nuts and stay in there! Whilst I do like my splits I'd never specify them if I had a choice; a built-in maintenance problem if ever I saw one! [:D]
I think mine were refurbed by Jasmine up north, who did a good job for the previous owner. My own research had found 'Max Powder' in Hemel Hempstead who really appeared to know what they were talking about on splits too.
