Thanks guys. Aluminum finish tie's in nicely with the clear markers/tail lights and lighten the mood a bit. May experiment with a few pearls to darken rims up a shade or two. Thought are welcome. T

Jeesh....GTS just got back to TX. The 79 will be your way later this year though and don't forget you've got to be close enough to sting... T

Looking good. Are those wheels wider than the standard GTS turbo style, or did you add spacers? Sorry I'm sure you mentioned that somewhere, RL is like a needle in a haystack

They are .5" wider up front and 1" wider out back than the rims that came off. Was running 5mm spacers up front and 15mm out back but no need for spacers now. Note: these particular rims offsets are for WB and TT/TTS. T

Nice, thanks. Now that's got me thinking about spacers - damm this RL site

Oh, I just spotted the greyed-out reflectors - very stealth.

Ty Paul. Spacers not needed with this wheel type. T

Rims are too old school

I admire your constant tweaks and mods!

Yes, thanks for reminding me Friends father passed this weekend at 103. He used to drive faster than everyone because he did not want to be the old fart that you would regret getting stuck behind. He stopped drivng 6 months ago. T

Hi Paul, See below for WB & NB fitments. The VFF-104's fit perfectly on the WB and site says also the TT/TTS (no spacers needed). T

WB fitment: http://vorsteinerwheels.com/applicat...991-wide-body/

NB fitment: http://vorsteinerwheels.com/applicat...1-narrow-body/

I had an Agate Grey C2c Cab- it was my first P car and it was an absolute blast. The deployable wind screen is slick and effective. You're gonna love it. Those wheels are sweet.
makes me wonder how much of a pain it would be to get rid of my GTS CL wheels and get standard lug wheels.
