Looks great. Those are some of my favorite wheels on 996/997s and E92 M3s.

I love the P40 look, the pinstriping has to be done by hand, so if not done well, it can suck. But you guys did a GREAT job.

Love the matte finish. How does it hold up to brake dust?

Good question Eric,
The Matte Black is a smooth finish and the brake dust cleans off the wheel without problems.

Do you guys apply the pinstripe before or after mounting the tire?

I would however recommend the 19" over the 20" for those of you that like driving your car more than starring at it. They have almost identical dimensions to the stock wheels, and are lighter than the 20's. This means you get better handling and they still look great!!

It has H&R Springs, the owner loves the ride. He was actually here again yesterday bringing in a friend of his.

Will the rear of 997 wide body cars accommodate 13" wide wheel with 345/25/20 tires? I know it won't help performance, but if that is what I'm after, I'll stick with stock wheels and put on DOT road racing tires.
