It is hard to beat the look of the OEM wheels on your car .... which you just did with the new ones. I too love the concave look. Beautiful representation of the swap with some excellent shots (no surprise their). Very nicely done. You are such an asset to the 6speed community Jason. Which tireshop may I ask ? Looks like they are the ones to go to when I need any work on tires/wheels.

Hi Woot,

We do more than tires. We specialize in Porsche & Audi service and repair. We have the factory PIWIS tester and technicians that were factory trained by Porsche and spent many years working for the dealer. Our wheel & tire machines are fully touchless machines that do not contact the rim, which helped a ton when we were mounting Atomic's beautiful BBS wheels.

Feel free to stop by our shop and have a look around anytime.

Regards,
-MU Staff

I need to check you guys out... especially now that I've moved to Mercer Island, the east side is way more accessible. My new rims should be here in 3-4 weeks and I'll need my current tires and TPMSensors swapped over.

Any chance you install springs and do alignments? Would love to do the whole thing at once. PM me!

MU: Way to go guys. Great set up. I will definitely stop by your place the next time I am on the west side. I live in Yakima and do come over to the Bellevue/Issy area atleast five or six days a month.

Woot, We look forward to your visit.

Dr V, PM sent.

That's just awesome looking! Great choice in wheels and saving 7 pounds of unsprung weight per corner (or thereabouts) is phenomenal!

These wheels are on the GTO so if Ferrari thinks they're ok for that then they're A-OK in my book.

Thanks for the tip for Motoring Unlimited. Great guys over there! They just got done with my S4's drop... plus they're getting my summer rims powder coated... and my 997 is in there right now getting suspension work done. I think I just found my new favorite place to get things done!



Yellow.. just like your daily driver Jason!
