Gotcha, thanks for the info. I was pondering getting the P101s in 21, but decided to stick w/ OEM size as I'm going to be tracking and I wanted to keep the weight down and have more tire choices. That, and our roads are probably FAR worse than yours.

The ADV 20's are actually lighter so i have not felt any performance issues.
The 991 Red turbo S are 21" built with Titanium because they are 3 piece it saved some weight per wheel. They are about the same weight as OEM and it feels the same. I will say this the 997 ride became a little harsher with the 20's but i cant notice ANY difference on the 991. The suspension system is more advanced and seems to adjust just fine. Ride really does feel stock to me. In closing i was worried about buying a color matched/black wheels for the 991. Polished may look to similar to OEM, All Black cool but sometimes can hide the lines of the wheels, and becoming real common? Going to a color matched wheel lip could look cheap or something else. I ran the risk and honestly it is striking in person. Like them or not they catch you eye rolling down the road. Just trying to have a little fun LOL...

Not a fan, too much red IMO. Would like to see some contrast but as long as the owner likes it then who am I to criticize? I'll bet they weren't cheap!

I would love to see some rolling shots of this beauty. I have a neighbour who used to own a red F430 with red lips on his HRE's and it was mean! Esp when moving.

I like yours even better. BTW - PM me if you wish to sell your 997TT.

Thanks,
John
