Talking Friday Project @ SharkWerks with OZ Ultraleggera Wheels

This basalt black 2006 997S project came into factory aerokit option and came into us for the EVOMSit software upgrade (tuned for 91 octane), the EVOMS V-Fflow intake and a set of 19 inch black OZ Ultraleggera monobloc wheels.

Here she is in stock form:


The V-Flow intake installed:


Calibrating the EVOMSit software for 91 octane and improved throttle response:


A close up of the OZ Wheels installed. They're quite light at 21 pounds (front) & 24 pounds (rear) and very well priced:



Ready to go home:




For more on those OZ wheels:

Yeah looks like he picked the conservative offsets... Should have gone with the ET51 rears. But it looks good!

Hi Jon, car hadn't settled yet and also has a very odd alignment. Once we tune the suspension the alignment will get taken care of and we may well need them anyways.

I would not do the black on the wheels for that particular car as I don't care for the look (too much black), but the wheels themselves are NICE.

You mention the car hasn't settled yet, what suspension did he put on? Springs or coilover set?

If someone like me wanted this wheel in Orange can it be done? Any suggestions for a GT3 look wheel in Orange for a NB Carrera?

It's hard in pictures but they do look different enough in terms of the black to stand out
