Digging the wheels but not the yellow painted brakes.

They're factory PCCB's. Can't get 'em in any other color.

Congrats! Beautiful wheels. I'd also love to hear how you compare the ride quality and bumpiness with the change from 19's to 20's on Calgary's city streets. I've read all the old posts on whether the ride is too bumpy with 20's, and the members seem split on this issue. I'm in Toronto, so I figure you'd be a good comparison after the winter effects, potholes, etc.

Thanks!

Rambo,

I've only about a 100 clicks on the car ... i'm getting some more work done on it so its in the shop and i just got back from a week of vacation.
of the driving i have done, i do feel the potholes and bumps moreso then the stock 19's.

that being said, i love the look of the wheels and am going to feel sad when i have to put the stock wheels back on in the winter. lol

wow, I was just surfing wheel websites to see what the HRE rims would look like on a black 997tt and I found this thread. I'm considering these rims too with the hidden bolts (like boneheads, except in silver). I must say though that the 360Forged version of this wheel still looks the best. (they are all a variation of a common theme). I'm considering 12.5 inches wide on the rear, anyone done that? I did see the other thread with the 13 inch wide rears but I think it makes the tire look a little "stretched".
