awesome car! i like those wheels, i dont really care for the turbo twists. but that is me, i dont care for the fuchs wheels either, i see both too much.
I'm sure this will be considered heresy, but I am not convinced of the superiority of factory wheels.
I have 18" factory Sport Designs on my Boxster S. One wheel suffered a 'severe bend' (MAJOR vibration at highway speeds) requiring repair ($125). Then I recently had my tires balanced and a second rim was diagnosed as having a 'slight bend' which I can live with - but still, it's annoying.
My 944 has replica C2 Cups - never a problem!
I acknowledge that aftermarket wheels may be heavier (more unsprung weight is a bad thing) - but for a street car, I don't see a problem.
