Guys, I cannot thank you enough for your assistance in choosing wheels for my Turbo "S" coupe.

Please vote only on the two below options and select which of the TWO you think are the better choice...........Thanks

Not even close for me. I'd definitely go with the HRE 547R's.

I know there are lots who lovem but I have never been a big fan of black wheels.

I really do like the Cargraphics much better.

I think both wheels look great on the 996 Turbo.. But I like the black HRE's with the chrome lip.. It complements the car well.

Put HRE's on one side of the car and Cargraphic's on the other. Who's going to see both sides of your car at the same time anyway?
