I think they would look good on a 996tt, that fat lip would look scrumptious, cant say I have ever see them before on a 996tt or any car or heard of them.
Maybe you can get them to photoshop it on ur car, then see what you think.
I know its not the same but you can get a general idea about them. Just my .03 cents(inflation you know )

My advice.........the only opin that really matters on wheels......is yours.

Having said that:
**They might be good with center painted to car color (just my opin)
**So, are they avail in the offset you want (and width to fit tire size you plan on running)?
**Weight OK ?
**Cost of replace of rims (inner or/and outer)
**Is that an unfinished polished lip?.......or cleared?
**Who is Work Equip?

At the end of the day, how they look to you (moving, not just standing still) is what's most important. When I pic wheels I always photoshop them on my car............narrow down the possibilities........and listen to no one .

Good luck.

can some one Photoshop and what would bb the ideal offets for max width of a lip. They also said that they would fit a 996 turbo. I would like to see a silver one with the center painted black.

Those look very much like wheels I had on a 944 back in the 1980s.

Not my style. If the wheels fly, you must buy.

Work wheels are some of the best around. They make some models specificaly for Porsche so this one won't be my first choice.
