I think they are a HRE variant. I found them searching this thread.


This is the wheel I would look into. Something close. No colored lip. My wife and I both like black so we shall see.

I think that last one is IForged. Do you know anything about them? I had 1 set of HRE's for a month they were pieces of shit. I returned them.

I know BBS makes a wheel and BBS makes a good wheel. I'm just not sold on their exact look.

I don't know, any aftermarket rim on the CGT looks off. I've never seen a CGT with other rims than the stock that looked "right". If you had to get new wheels, I think the 5 thin spoke style is the best to maintain that OEM look. Just my opinion though.

Na nothing re: iForged. I've always thought it was a terrible name for a wheel company.

The rims BBS makes for the CGT are a bit to racecar. There is a british member on here who has BBS rims.

Id do this ( if you can pick up a second set of stockers ). Still retains the CGT's class, but gives a new look whilst maintaining some Porscheness.

Bbs is is too racecar
I will rims only to keep the stock option if I change. My wife really likes the black so that's my push. Not too fast tho.

Thanks for all the thoughts. I've always thought myself the rims were a touch off. Id most likely like gunmetal like my scud best but who knows
