If you like a lip, I would recommend the Comp series wheels. Stepped lip with titanium assembly bolts.

940R comes in 20-22" fitments.

I would not recommend them for a 996. I would recommend the lighter more sporty series.

R40 series, P40S series, C90 series would be most ideal for Porsche 911's.

I thought competition series has a c20 style with 8 spit spokes?? true?! IMO, that's the best one (in terms of lips) for a 996 wide body...
