So, I have a question. I am a current 997 owner, and found a smoking deal on some Carrera V wheels and some Pilot Sport Cup 2's. I decided to test fit them on my 997, and I just couldn't get behind them. Obviously, I am a black wheel / Silver Car guy, and the Carrera V's are simply "Bright Silver." I decided to strip the tires and sensors and mount them on a set of Textured Black powder coated Carrera S II's. I decided to sell the Carrera V's on E$*& and literally got one bid. Mind you, this is a no-reserve auction... SMH. Sooooo.... My question is this... Wouldn't these 991 19's be desirable for the track or for winter tires? Even though they are NB specs, I expected more interest. See the two shots below....

 

Do not assume that, just because it is a Porsche part, that you will be able to sell it for a good price or that dozens of people have an interest in it. A lot of it just has to do with luck and timing. When I traded in my car, I removed the mods and try to sell them off hoping to get a decent price. Some things went unsold for weeks, and when they finally sold, at a lot bigger discount that I wanted or expected - as a matter of fact, I got so discouraged, I thought some items would not sell at all. Lesson learned - I keep car stock and don't even bother modding it.
