RUF R-Kompressor with Brushed & Cleared Forgeline SC1s

After having a few different sets of wheels on my RUF 997, none of which were the perfect fitment or exactly the look I wanted for the car, I ordered a set of custom Forgeline SC1 wheels in their brushed & cleared finish. They arrived about a week ago, right on schedule, and I had them mounted, cleaned-up the car, and today, headed out to a few different venues around my area (near Clemson University) for a photo shoot.

Wheels are beautiful, quality is top notch, fitment is spot on, they're super-light, and the car drives wonderfully with them - I'm very pleased and can't recommend Forgeline wheels highly enough. You can get them through Wheel Enhancement.

Specs are:
Front - 19" x 8.5" et 50mm with a 235/35 Nitto Invo
Rear - 19" x 12" et 74mm with a 305/30 Nitto Invo

There's a lot of info and photos in my original WTB ad here - https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...eels-no-b.html

so I won't duplicate that info and will just share a few of today's photos, but there are many more and a couple of drive-by video links of my full Fabspeed setup on a Shutterfly share site here - https://rufrkompressorwithforgelinesc1s.shutterfly.com/

Enjoy!

Thanks. I also converted it to an active aero setup like a TT wing. It's in the up position here.

Added CF Defroster Vent panels and center speaker cover over the weekend. Had these in my closet since Christmas 2015 and finally got around to installing them. Went with these versions as the ones with the carbon strips on the regular panel tend to lift and curl up as they age especially if in a hot climate.

Great looking car! I love just about everything about it except the crest on the rear bumper... Just my opinion, so who really cares...

Thanks. I have a RUF logo I'm going to replace the crest on the rear bumper with next time I have to remove the bumper for some reason (or if I have nothing to do one day - Ha Ha) and then it will match the RUF badge on the hood.

I kinda like the Porsche crest - it identifies the car as a Porsche and the script on the lid identifies the car as having Ruf mods not to be confused as a Ruf built car.
