Volk TE37 Time Attacks on a 997TT

Hey guys. I took on a fun project for a 997TT customer. They really liked the Volk TE37 Time Attack wheels but unfortunately, Volk does not make them yet for the Porsche! So I went into custom mode. I had the wheels powdercoated a gloss black to match his car then we had the red stripe painted around it. Throw in the Volk carbon center caps and wrap the tires with some Pirelli and BAMM!

The wheels are 19x8.5 and 19x12. The fronts weight about 18lbs and the rear about 20lbs. 1 piece forged wheel. Good news is, our shipment of REAL time attack wheels comes in end of december A set of 4 costs around $3500. Stay tuned and enjoy!

I love those wheels but not on the 997TT. I just don't think it fits the lines of the car very well.

If they look good, they look good. If you feel that a Porsche should only use HRE or BBS, etc, you are missing out. Here is a picture of a G35 with TE37 Time attacks. Black is black

Love the wheels, love the car. Don't love the wheels on the car. Nice effort nonetheless.

People start associating certain brands or rims to certain brands of cars exclusively. I think they look good. Everybody has BBS and HRE's
