it might be painful to look at stock ride height cars like mine, but it's even more painful to drive a lowered car where I live.

I can't even back mine out of the driveway without scraping the front lip spoiler. The tailpipes 'barely' clear as well :-(

You're excused then. Poor road conditions in some areas can completely justify it. Everyone else... Tisk tisk...

Same wheels at 993GT, OZ Allegerita in GT2 sizes/offsets. I've since swapped to a set of OEM GT2 wheels for the OEM+ look, but the OZ's are still in the basement

For those of you running GT2 tire sizes on an 11" rear wheel, what wheel offset are you using? I am trying to get an idea of how aggressive of an offset can be used before fender rolling becomes necessary with a 315 tire.

I'm really loving the CCW's on these cars. Do they make a wheel besides the classics that will work for our cars?

Finally swapped out my 19" AG wheels for some 18" Fikses wrapped in R888s. I'll get some better ones over the weekend, but here is a quick shot from while the car was at the detailer getting a full paint correction and reapplication of OptiCoat

So far I love the wheels, I think the 18" really fits the age of the car much more. Turn in as judged on B-Roads and on/off ramps is vastly improved as well. The car feels more nimble in all aspects.
