Talking 2011 997 Twin Turbo S with HRE Monoblok P40 Centerlocks @ SharkWerks

This brand new 2011 997TT S project came into us for a few choice modifications. On the menu so far is a set of HRE's new light-weight P40 Centerlock Wheels in satin charcoal and the OEM 997GT2 side skirts painted to match.

In she comes already fully-covered in Premier's Satin Guard full wrap:



The HRE P40C's with tires/TPMS installed. You can see the extra machining done on the spokes to save weight:


Off with the stock wheels (which are actually 3-6pounds heavier than the HRE's going on) and on with the factory 997GT2 side skirts:


You can only see 1/2 of the TQ wrench...


Good clearance in the front for PCCB's:


There we go, the new wheels fill the fender much better now. The original factory centerlocks are tucked in due to a very conservative offset hence we went for a more aggressive fitment.



Close-up of the satin charcoal finish:


Ready to go home!






A pair of older silver turbos as well...

LOVE THE LOOK NOW! Great work you guys.

I love how the offset of the wheels fill the fenders. Would you mind telling us what offset have you guys used on them?

Cheers,
