Stock BBS Porsche 18",Auto Art 19" or HRE 547 19" on Vesuvius Metallic C4 Cabrio?
Please help me decide if I should keep my stock BBS 18" and lower the car or slap on some Auto Art or HRE 547 series 19" and custom powder coat them body color? Reason why I picked HRE 547 series is because those are the only set of HRE's in stock I can find here in Taiwan.
1st picture is my stock BBS 18"
2nd picture Auto Art 19" in Dark Grey
3rd picture is HRE 19" in black

keep the stock BBS and lower the ride (pss9).... you can always put wheels, but its all about the ride! Nice aftermarket wheels without a good stance doesnt do the wheels justice.

It turned out that the HRE's are not new and dented, so my only options are Auto Art and staying stock... lol I think I prefer doing the Auto Art but there's 2 versions of the mesh wheel from Auto Art, one is flat mesh VY (pic 1) and the other version is concaved inwards VYC (pic 2). Which ones do you guys prefer?

Well, with the road condition in taiwan, it may not have the best road condition to drive a lowered car, way too many potholes. However, if you go 19' without dropping the height of the car, it looks pretty ugly.

You guys are absolutely right about the lowering. I refuse to get any type of wheels if I don't plan to lower it in the first place that's just "wrong" Anyways, PSS9's are ordered a few weeks ago and should be here soon. Also GT2 type wing and side skirts are on the way to Taiwan also... The last 2 things I'm debating on is the front bumper and wheels. 
P.S. Taiwan road conditions are.... really bad compared to So Cal... it's more like NYC, but If I can live with a slammed LS460 on 22" I think I'm ok with the 19" on the Porsche.
