Yes these are actually 19" HRE P40s in silver finish.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions

Thanks- They look big for 19's - Thought they were 20's. It's a potential choice on my wheel upgrade list

If anyone has pics of these in silver/20" on a 997 please post.

Personally, I think brushed looks better, it has more POP to it. Silver is sort of bland.

Thanks guys- What color are the wheels in the pics (including the one I posted) - silver or brushed?
HRE Guy- are those 20's?

If I go with brushed, how does one obtain a matching Porsche center cap?

The "studio" shot car has the silver powder coated finish and the other car has the brushed finish. In pictures they are difficult to see the difference.

The silver matches the factory caps perfectly. We have brushed some of our Billet Aluminum Porsche caps before and it looks very nice. I will see if I have a photo.

For brushed centers I use Ralph Boothe caps, send them HRE to get them finish matched.

billet caps are nice, thanks for the link / pic- anyone making small silver crest centers to match the silver hood badges?
Are those 20's?

BTW, how many of you HRE folks are on here?? LOL -nice to see the presence.
