Well finally got around to installing the H&R springs and my new wheels and tires came in the mail...finally. Remeber black and tans are not only a great beer but a pretty good look, I think. Wheels are Zehn 18" and tires are Hankooks, Lowered on H&R springs. Black 911 emblem on rear and finally aligned the exhuast tips with the fabspeed clamps. What do you guys think...???
I am very happy with the look...items up next are black Porsche centers and a black bolt in rollbar. BIG THANK YOU to adg44 for his spring install , it put me at ease installing the springs....much less work than the factory manuals call for.

Amazing what new wheels and tires can do to a car. I think it looks GREAT! Stay away from the curbs.

looks awesome!! kick *** pics , too......the Black and tan is a great color combo, for sure.....

Do you have rear spacers? the fronts are sitting just right...the rears... I dunno if it's the size of the rear tire , the offset, or a combination.... it seems there isn't any edge protection..

be very careful next to any curbs.....

With this setup I was able to eliminate the spacers that were on the car 13mm up front and 15mm in the rear, the rear tire Is slightly stretched abit due to concerns the tire would rub. Im running a 275/35 in the rear which is a 10.8in tire on an 11in wheel....glad I made that decision a 295 would rub definately and a 285 would be dangerously close. I will stay away from curbs.....Ive only curbed a wheel once and I swore to myself never again.

Thanks for the positive comments guys.

Very nice looking wheels! Good job! Lots of pics, too!

philooo

superb picture and wheels

what is the offset on those new wheels ?

2K7TTMIA

so you aren't running any spacers? what is the offset on the rear wheel?

and what kind of spacers did you remove? are they hubcentric with longer bolts...hmmmm


Oh yeah, and pick one of those many cool shots for your new avatar....

Really cool color combo. Love the lower stance!

No spacers..offset is 55 rear 45 front.

Spacers are Hubcentric H&Rs 13mm front and 15mm rear...with 20 longer H&R wheel bolts...yes am going to put them up for sale.

Sorry, I have to go against the grain here...don't like such a straight/squared looking spoke design on an aero car...nice wheels, nice car, just think there are better wheel designs for that car...

I think you missed an angle.

Looks good and more agressive, especially on that gold paint.

ok, so check this out...my 19 X 8 fronts have a 57mm offset, but I just changed it with a 13mm spacer = a 44mm offset....

my 19 X 11 rears are 67mm offset and if I go with a 13mm spacer = a 54mm offset

so even though your wheels are 18's, the offsets seem dead on without spacers...

and I am running 295/30/19's in the back, so lowering the rear is out of the question for me....

I get you but....I have a pattern going here.....and really like that said pattern.

Prior two cars.....
