Thin five spoke 20" wheels?
 
Any suggestions or pics? Thinking these would look really good on a black 996tt. Prefer not having "bolts" around the edges... Purely street use.

Thx in advance!

while 20s will look cool, it will compromise daily driving

20s look too big on the 996tt but good on the 997tt in my opinion.

Thats my opinion also. You may feel differently. A side from compromising the handling and breaking, in person they just seem un-proportioned to the body. Where as the 997 has a larger appeal so it can pull it off better.

But if you go with 20" you can do certain things to make them look smaller and more proportioned to the car, like lowering, taller side wall tires, etc.

Check out some of D2 Forged's wheels www.D2Forged.com
They have a lot of nice wheels and have some new stuff not on there site yet.

I am hopefully about to cop a pair my self.
