Looks much better now, congrats !

 

Looks great, I have those same wheels on my '10 4S. I agree on the side markers, best $30 you can put into a 911 and super simple to install.

 

I like it. I've always had aftermarket wheels on my other cars, but for some reason I prefer a stock wheel on a 911. classy and does not convey the message that the car has been heavily modded and probably driven like it has been too.

 

the lowered 19s look great !

now u just need the spacers.. lol

 

+1!!!! Spacers will make such a massive difference without upsetting the overall look or creating an 'aftermarket' look to it. 5/7mm Front, 114/15 Rear work PERFECT for this application. I had 7/15 on my C2S and it made all the difference in terms of the look/stance. If I didn't have the CLs on my GTS, spacers would have been installed 1 hour after taking delivery (if not before).

 

My car came with 5mm spacers from the factory. I'm curious now if they were lost/stolen/discarded last winter when I switched the wheels from the 18"s to 19"s. I'll take a trip up into the attic to see if they're stuck to the old wheels. Hopefully so.

 

Good taste! This is how I would mod my car, keeping it as close to stock as possible. I also wanted those wheels but got a good deal on barely used Turbo II's. I keep my mods at a minimum cost given the price of the car.

P.S. Do you scrape with the springs? This is my only dilemma of lowering mine. The Carrera has good clearance that I don't worry about scraping it at my parking garage at work.

 

What are the condition of your Turbo IIs? Those were my first choice, but I couldn't find any at the time. Want to trade?

Haven't scraped with the springs yet. Taking everything at an angle. Living in WV, it's probably only a matter of time. I'm pretty cautious, though.

 

Totally agreed! Great job with the H&R's, I like mine as well. The non-PASM stock fender gap is HUGE and unnecessary - why can't we all get the "rest of world" ride height??? Well done.

Oh there's definitely a difference. See the contrast in mine:

You gonna add PDK?

 

Good work.

 

Mine came with the factory 5mm spacers and it looks great. I installed the Techart springs and the new stance is amazing. The confort remain 90%, I wasn´t hopping for that, the ride quality is just perfect, you can barely tell the diff in confort, it should have come like this from factory. Lower stance gives it a sportier look too.

 

I know it makes a huge difference, I have H&R springs on mine. I guess it's just the small picture he posted. The more I look at it, it does look better so I take that back. At first glance, it didn't look much different.
