Need help with some wheels--cant figure out what to pick
Man since I cannot find any used ones right now that I can use or like, I was looking for the experience of your inputs to aid with my decisions.
First of all--I really cannot decide on size. I love the fact of keeping the factory specs and keeping ride quality to the maximum but everytime I see a car with 20" wheels i tend to drool. Hence this photo
I think that looks crazy. But I am not sure of the ride quality. I found some other wheels that I was curious about that are 3 piece reversed lip-made by Jline

I also love the Iforged swift wheel and senaks. I want to make sure I get a good wheel-quality wheel and since this would be my first porshce .
Also the budget is not endless, so feedback would have that in mind too. Thanks guys. I have been checking out all the different wheels people have used on their cars also through the search feature.

Wizo. I'm probably going to sell my 20" Avus'. They're perfect. Just a thought. I'd sell 'em half of what I paid for them.

If the link doesn't work, please let me know. I'm curious as whether or not Myspace can be used.

I have the 19" Iforged Senekas.. 19's are the way to go, if you want the best performance. If you order them new get prepared to wait 3 months before they ship them to you. Also make SURE whatever wheels you get you get the tpms adapters. Good luck

TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR Adapters. They are little mounts inside the wheels that the sensors attach to so they still function. Some shops try to band the sensors which means they take the sensor and place it on the wheel and wrap a steel band around it to hold it in place. The problem is that with all the movement and road vibrations they tend to come loose on Porsche especially.
Any one have any input?
Thanks in advance.

They should be available for most aftermarket wheels. Some wheels are made like the manufacturer and some need the adapter. you just need to ask the people you buy your wheels from and you'll be fine.

Hre C20's are my first choice but the wheels i got--Rennworkx wheels surely have me smilling ear to ear.. Talk about a great 3 piece wheel that need about no weights and look and feel great!!
Not to mention these dang wheels are lighter than most wheels I have ever lifted!!

I was considering those J-Lines at one time, same ones your looking at but passed hard on those after a couple days, I finally ending up with 20 inch DPE S-15's, but you should look at those new DPE's that just came out they are called S-7's those are hot or DPE S20's or Volk TE-37's or Sevas R-22's or Rinspeed C5/1's or O.Z. HLT Ultralegera or Maya MRS or HRE 591R's, those are some of my favorites, but def get the 20's and a flat lip and YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY, yeah the ride is a little harder and less unsure but worth the overall feeling if your not tracking the car. good luck making a decision is a total, total *****.
