These wheels look good on the 997 cars, the 964, air cooled, etc. on the GT3 look wrong. They may be ugly but these look worse:

Agree with others that it seems to be an air-cooled look and not so great on the 981.
I think they are forged monobloc. Looking at their site they run about $7k in similar 20" sizes.

Mad respect for Magnus and I appreciate a guy/gal who does what he/she likes with their car but I do not like those wheels at all on the GT4.

that looks heaps better, gold looks good too, however the GT4 could just be too angular for these rounded old school style wheels

Agree that those wheels should be outlawed on a GT4.

Wheels look good on his 964...don't fit the Cayman well.
