Spankster,
A set of Champion RG-5 Titaniums are in my future. Look at the RG-19 Monolites as well. Pfaff Tuning can get them or call up Peter at the Wheel Experts. He is a sponsor here so that should mean something to you.

Spanky,
I just installed a 19" set of RG5 monolites. They are noticable lighter than the stock wheels and look really great...not to flashy.
I did use a set of 10mm spacers on the front & 7mm spacers
on the rears. This positioned the wheels exactly where the factory
wheels where in the wheel wells. I also used 5mm longer polished bolts to finish it off. I think Brandywine Porsche has a set
in stock. Call Justin there & he will take care of you...610-886-1000, no affiliation.
It is a great choice.

the interest in the Champion wheels have been growing recently, for good reason........a lot of great technology in this lineup, along with the Kinesis F110 which is from the same factory. Lightest aluminum wheels in those sizes i've seen!

yah, the overall diameter is within the reccomended amount. If you want a little more sidewall in the back, because there is bascially none, you can run 305/30/19's. Im running the same PCJR, 315/235 conti sport II's.
