I would prefer "A" / first photo -- although I think the turbo-look wheels look nice, I wouldn't pick them ("B") purely because they are going to be harder to clean, and if going with a turbo look would always feel like I should have gone center-lock....

But bottom-line is that they are both very nice wheels (both made by BBS for Porsche, I believe) and you really can't go wrong.

I vote the one on the left, but I'm biased cause I chose them for my T4S. I'm the guy who wanted to put the 50th wheels on it but decided to stick with the Carrera Classics. However, you can't go wrong with either of your choices.

I like the simplicity and openness of the classics and the brakes show better

I like the high tech effect of the turbos and the modern touch

Appreciate the feedback. I think the deciding factor for me might be that when I see the classics I can't help to admire them for simplicity and calm. When I see the turbos I occasionally think they look a bit busy and cleaning issues do enter my mind.

Still deciding but neither a bad choice. Welcome the opinions as many have these wheels and have lived with them.

You can't go wrong either way with those choices, but I would lean toward the Carrera Classics. In my mind, they "go" with the Targa concept a bit more than the Turbo wheels. But it's all a matter of personal taste/ preference, and they're both beautiful.
