Took off my winter tires and wheels and mounted my Vossen wheels. I forgot how good these look until I put them back on the car

Looking good, I'd love to see those on the move! Your pic makes me realize how bad I need to wax my black 911...

Those are great looking wheels on a great looking 911. I love the look of 20's except for how small they make the rotors look. It's the same on the new 991. On your car with those colors... Just awesome.

Very sharp. What finish is that on the wheels? Charcoal or something? Now....do you really need winter tires and wheels in Austin TX?

Don't really need winter tires in Austin, but the Hankook tires on these wheels don't work as well in the ice and rain as the Michelin SS tires I have on my other set of wheels.

The finish is actually, plasti-dip. Black with a silver metalizer to give it that gunmetal look.

The ride is not bad, a little harsher than having the 19" wheels. I found that if I keep the front tires at 32psi and the rears at 35psi, that gives me the smoothest ride.
