Wheel Searching.....

I've been looking for new set of wheels 19 or 20 for my 997 for the last two months and cannot find anything I like. Has anyone on here ever installed wheel adapters to fit Mercedes lug pattern?

Which Mercedes wheel do you like? Post a pic. Maybe there's an aftermarket wheel that fist Porsche cars that looks like it.

What're you trying to spend? I saw a great set of Volk Racing TE37 wheels in 20x8.5 and 20x11 with tires for $1,800 in the Marketplace (not mine; wish they were).

@albert that first design is sick. How much lip could you get without the fender work shown on the car pictured?

I appreciate your kind words, the D5 True Directional Forged Wheel looks sick even when its moving.

Without the 997 Liberty Walk Kit we always have engineering maximize the depth of lip on each build but for the 997 can pull off a 3" or 3.5" rear lip
