vick57 is infamous around these parts
wheel style/look is a matter of taste. i like those OEM 5 spoke turbo wheels better than the old OEM turbo wheels. but, in wheel design and construction aftermarket beats OEM hands down. just visit the HRE site. those things are modern sculpture.

Bro who are you talking to seriously?!

Your Porsche knowledge is all about bling which has nothing to do with Porsche. You like custom cars. Not Porsche. You just happen to drive one. Dont insult me if your biggest concern is the size of the rear lip on your 911. Please....

I never see many positive comments coming from you here? Are you some sort of expert?

I like the wheels personally, but it needs to be lowered...

Sorry to revive an old post but can someone definitively answer whether 997 turbo rims and tires (OEM) will fit 996 narrow body? Many thanks!
