it's funny how everyone is posting pics of their own cars lol

I would say mesh is traditional motorsport for Porsche, as used through racing in the past several decades, akin to the BBS E88, the road going BBS CH, or similar style with Fikse, Forgeline, HRE or the multitude of manufactures. This said I really like a 5 spoke or split 5 spoke multi-piece wheel for a nice style and different look on the 911, for a unique street appeal. In addtion, as a great go-between for street and track, the champion RS171 is a great lightweight monoblock, and there are a few 10 spoke wheels offered in a monoblock which I think are great on these cars for wieght, strength, performance and looks.

I think the stock 997tt wheels are perhaps the best looking rim out there. I found a set on eBay for 1600 shipped and they look even better on the 996 than the 997, in my biased opinion of course.
