best 19" wheels for black turbo

I am looking for wheels for my 2001 996 turbo. It is black exterior with brown leather interior. I am having trouble finding the perfect wheels. I am not a big fan of black wheels and I don't want to spend a ton (although I am definitely open to used wheels at a good price). I know this is entirely subjective, but wanted to get some ideas.

Any advice or pics is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Look at HRE's. A bit expensive but great quality and perfect for a TT.

I just actually posted it up for sale. They aren't the cheapest though

You can contact Forged DST as they own 360Forged now and still sell their wheels. In terms of a used set, I haven't seen another 996 turbo with these wheels but I know for a fact mine was the first they made.

If you are interested, I'm in Houston too so we can meet up if you want to see them in person.

I'm also selling the HRE's

and 18" Kinesis wheels too

If I had a black car I would set it up like this! This car is sick!




I would also consider these. OZ Ultraleggera.


These are also nice. GMG just released them. Check their site for more pics.

Hook 'em. That's my car and the pic was taken at uptown park. The lm;s are awesome but the rear lip just didnt' cut it unfortunately.

Just don't buy chrome wheels or three piece wheels with chrome outers. Nothing but trouble. Corrosion and bead leaks all the time.
