They look like Niche wheels but I can't tell for sure at that angle. Looks amazing though. I would love to get more info myself.

I got some pics of it.
I think they over did the rear offset, as is so typical, for most custom wheel vendors.

It's the only 991 I saw there, but I did not get to every hall.

They are too big and indeed the offset is overdone, but never seen a tuner's car that isn't overdone.

The design of the wheels looks okay though, but they have to be 20". IMO that is the max. that looks good on the car. I also can't imagine the ride quality on bigger wheels. Must be awful.

Overdone is a good way to put it
The diameter up sizing does make a style statement.
However, wheel beyond fender is where I draw the line.
These tuners need to dial back their rear offsets.
I don't get how they think 56mm looks good

A 305 on an 11.5 @ 68mm seems plenty flush to me.
If someone really wanted more, a 315 looks like it might work also

i think the 21s look good, really fills out the wheel wells, but those wheels are just awful. reminds me of my mongoose dirt bike wheels when was a kid...
