I'm looking for new or used wheels, something that looks great on a black '99 911 coupe. Tires are optional, I have a connection for tires, but I'm looking for 19's I guess. I'm in love with the black Tech Arts, but 4 grand for the set is too pricey for me.
If anyone has wheels to push, please let me know.
Also, is supercharging the '99 worth it? She only has 21k on her, but Im torn. Around how much am I looking at to get this supercharged?
Thanks guys, I'm truely addicted to this site. I also like to visit the Lambo site and drool on occassion. Someday.....yea......someday....

try Tirerack. if u don't want to spend the extra money seems like SSR GT3 is perfect for u.

 

I've got a brand new set of Rims/Rubber that came with my '04 C4S (factory Rims/Rubber). Never used. PM me if you're interested...

Dev, supercharging is about 10-12K, IMHO yes it is worth it, really brings the car to life.

For wheels I like the factory 18" 5 Spoke's that came on the 02+, but if you want 19's I like the SSR-GT3's like Arling (20C4S) said.

 

Thanks so far, i'll be looking at thoes options. Probably wont supercharge this car, i'll save the $ for a turbo someday.
I'm still open for more wheel options.

Also, what rim and tire sizes will I want to get?

Are the spokes on this wheel silver and not chrome? I'd prefer silver anyway. I do see a lip on these, but nothing like what you guys are spinnin'.

 

Dev911 - you must be looking at the shiny black techart Formula GTS in 19". They are beautiful however there is a huge backlog on them right now.

I have given up on the Techarts and have moved onto something else. Though these new ones will still take 4 weeks from production to delivery, I am sure the wait is worth it.

 

18 inch wheels sizes you might want to keep it stock 18x8 front with 225/40-18 and 18x10 rear with 285/30-18.

19 inch wheels sizes you could try 19x8 or 19x8.5 front with 235/35-19 and 19x10 or 19x11 rear with 275/30-19 or 285/30-19.

 

I was looking at the Techarts as well, but to long of a wait and very expensive. There is a set on Ebay right now, check them out. Remember there are 2 different sizes for the Techarts, 1 of them requires rolling the fenders. I went a different route for wheels and tires, I bought factory GT3 wheels and painted the centers blk. I think it turned out great! Good luck!

 

You cant say that without posting a pic there guardsy!

 

i got a set of hre 540R's for $3000 if you want, any color center, they are polished right know and are almost new. no rubber

 

Greg, I'm in NJ too and am selling my factory Sport Design wheels. They are 18x7.5 and 18x10. PM me if you are interested.

 

Here's a picture. The center caps are temp. The factory crests are being painted blk.

 

Another picture.

 

I'll have a set of solid Turbo II wheels (C4S) (8x18/11/18(et45)) for sale probably next week. One rear has minor curb rash otherwise in great condidtion.
