Porsche had to jump hurdles to meet public demand with a 19 in wheel . Then someone wants 20 . Everyone is different but I just can't see it . 20 in wheels are simply too big . They aren't even allowed on the track and i think it takes a car which had a design purpose of performance and changes it .

The P40 is great wheel and HRE is a fantastic manufacturer. Good choice. I strongly urge you to place a 19 in wheel on that car .

I would go with the 20's for style or the 19's for function.

The 20" is actually the same as the Turbo. We stock the Brushed here. Check out our gallery of different Porsche's with HRE wheels on it here - www.vividracing.com/hrewheels

What is good pricing for these wheels? Love the look but the cost gives me heartburn.

Same here! I need a 50% discount to make the case for some HRE C21s

But if you live in SoCal or Miami, though, you have a good chance of getting a used set from someone - there are some good deals out there.
