2010 C4S Cab

Hi, A few months ago I picked up a new C4S Cab in Meteor Grey. It is heavily optioned, PDK, PSE, Chrono, Sport plus, Full leather heated/air seats, Nav, Audio, Ipod etc etc.
It also has full Makassar trim to doors, pulls, vents, shifter, steering wheels heated wheel etc. I know a lot of you do not like the wood but it looks great in the flesh on full black leather interior.
It also has the 19'' 10 spoke sport wheels (11.5 inch rears) with the spokes finished in grey.
My dilemma is this. Whilst I like the look of the wheels on the car, I also like the Turbo wheels which I had on my previous TT's and cannot decide if I should get some and sell the current ones. I would not want replicas.
I intend to put some lowering springs on and would like to fill the wheel wells and so it may be better to get some aftermarket rims, P40's or such like.
Anyone done this/ have thoughts? I did try to post some pics but they would not upload. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any input.

If you plan to lower the car, I'd do that before getting new wheels. I personally like your wheels, even though I have to admit that when I had them on my previous Targa, I put some Champion RG5B wheels on (which are now on my cab). I just happened to have them already, and put the Carrera Sports back on when I sold the car. You can always add spacers if you feel you want to fill out the fender wells a little more, but see what they look like after lowering first. If you really don't like the current wheels, then I recommend Champions or HRE's. They are lighter, and high quality wheels.
