V-301 vorsteiner wheels

Does anyone have a set of v-301s on their ride. If so please post pictures. These wheels look like they have soo much class in them.

Cool

I looked at those wheels too but ruled them out. What bothered me about them is that the design is directional. Therefore, much like the old Turbo Twist style wheels from the 986 and 996s, one side of your car has the spokes angled one way and the other side the other way. Not a big deal to most people but something to be aware of.

Scroll about half way down the following link and note that on one side of the car, the "pointed edge" of the wheel spokes points towards the front of the car and on the other side they point towards the back.

It is a great looking wheel if that doesn't bother you but I couldn't get past it.

Hmm, not sure I can spot a difference. They look the same to me.

Can you see how the spokes on the wheel have a pointed side and a squared off side? Look at which way the pointed sides face on one side of the car verses the other. On one side they face the front of the car and on the other the back.
