Well, been looking and looks like lot more options in 19". This wont be a track car so I think 19's should be ok? Avante Guarde seems to make some nice 19" that are porsche specific.

i say they can be worth 1k. so its not even worth it, keep em if you don't like them as another set of wheels and get oem's.

Can't be worse than changing motors on an evo

I might stick with springs, still debating.

Thanks for your advise to go with the OZ in 996 GT2 size, they look great and I'm really happy with them.
