Hey Rye, I haven't posted up any more pics of my car yet... I will eventually haha...Just haven't had the time to take some good shots of it.

I am envious of the stance on your car, and I do recall w/ the Classics on your car the wheel gap was a lot more pronounced and ride height looked more "stock". Guess the offsets make a world of difference.

Kind of a Ferrari-esque badge above the front wheels. Kind of interesting.

They were straight 997 TT factory OEM takeoffs. I got mine from Jonathan at Wheels Boutique, they're a board sponsor. Check with him - I think they get them with some regularity. Depends how you can find them. Keep in mind that the TPMS sensors could cost $350 for the set.

I had noticed that the plate looks like it's from Saudi Arabia maybe and that the PSE tips are reversed.

Already lookin' for mods

Rye, like the mods you've done so far. Well done, especially considering that your at stock ride height. I'm appx. 1 1/2 months into ownership and want to mod it already. May opt for the TT rims like you or push my current rims out w/spacers.

If you like the look of the turbo rims they are a great choice. Slightly wider in the front 8.5" vs. 8". Much more aggressive offsets, essentially the widebody offsets - they really bring the wheels all the way out. And they are forged so they are stronger than most any other wheel out there. AND really a huge bargain.
