I can't seem to find any pics. Someone's got to have these wheels.

Thanks in advance.

I would like to see these as well...great looking wheels. Too bad they don't make them in 18x12.

I think Tyson (Hamman7) had a set on his old blue 996 for the Excellence shootout.

For the LM-R on the 996TT you would be using a 19x8.5 and 19x11 you will need to run a 15 mm spacer on the rear.

I know the picture is not a 996 but the set up is the same.
