Retro Looking 997 Turbo
Retro Looking 997 Turbo
Hi Gents,
Im a proud owner of a new to me 997 Turbo in the lovely macadamia colour with sand interior. I think it a great retro colour scheme.
Im looking to continue the retro theme and replace the wheels with some modern retro wheels. I think the 993 RS wheels would look awesome with colour coded centers and polished lips. However all the replica 993RS wheels or similar style wheels, i can only find in 18 inch sizes, has anyone come across any of these reps in 19 inch format?
I would go with the 18s but i think they would look to small?
I presume there are no picture anywhere of a 997 turbo with 993 rs style wheels?
Thanks for your help

Fuchs makes a really nice retro wheel in the correct fitment, also porsche has that Fuchs tyle classic rim they sell. I believe member xseal has those rims.

I had a 997.1 TT w Sport Classics. I switched cars to a 2012 C4S and bought the reps made by Ruger. Great quality,great price too. I eventually painted them BBS Gold
It was a waste of $ buying the OEs
Sorry I have no pix as they are on another comp.

The Fuchs are straight up UGLY. It takes a serious set of wheels to REALLY do up the slightly bland shape of the 997tt. Find a nice set of HRE or ADV1 or alike and do them in copper or gold or even rose gold.
