Thanks to Ben and Kevin at WB for my latest mods. PSS10's with a subtle drop, porsche colored crest caps finished to match the fblack wheels and local body shop painted ft spoiler and rockers. The new suspension is a huge improvement to stock. No more extra light front end bouncy bouncy feel. I'm riding the hardest setting for now but will end up adjusting to a bit softer soon as she's my DD. One before and several afters, Enjoy!

Those rims are official! I would have left the black parts for contrast, though....

Rob-Looks like 26 inches from the ground to the top of wheel well. Anyone have any idea how high stock is? My 996tts cab with h&R springs sits a bit lower like 25.5.

Adam-I think I can. Once I got my other car next to it she still looks a bit high to me. Once you see my driveway and how it pitches up at a harder angle on the left door that was my concern about going to the lower setting. I have to admit the 25.5 looks mean. The guy who corner balanced was not in favor of any lower than "rest of world specs", so when I checked on the car at that setting, I said no way I need lower. We agreed to take it down another 1/4 inch and that's about where we are for now. May do more later.

TKD-Yup was a tough call b/c the trim matches almost perfect to the fblk, but I'm happy with my call.

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I feel truely BLESSED everytime I get to be behind the wheel.

Your Turbo looks awesome! I want these wheels for my seal grey 01! So what size and tire size did you go with? Also were the Porsche crest center caps custom or did you just order them from somewhere? Thanks! And again your Turbo looks great and I love the body match rockers and front spoiler!!!

235/35/ZR/19 315/35/ZR/19 ps2's on 19 inch wheels. The caps came from Boothe design and were sent to hre for finishing to match. The only minor hicup was I was sent a smaller cap that was for a diff hre wheel and the finish was not exact. Ben and Kevin handled all this for me with my order and took care of the mistake. I bought the wheels and tires as a package shipped to me and ready to put on the car. Call them for pricing. GL. Thanks!

Looks awesome! I am looking at the same wheel/tire set up. I'm having difficulty deciding between the black or brushed silver.
