Well maybe mine does not look exactly like that, but other than needing a good paint job and a little body work, it is a pretty good match.\

17" C2's right?

mine are 17" Cups 1's.

Brett,

Didn't you have problem with the tires rubbing the wells in the front when you lowered it?

Are you running 17's in it? If so what tires did you put on the front and back?

I am looking to get a new set and taking suggestions.

Ken

dunlop SP9000 front and back. and no i didnt lower it in the front. my car kinda had a dragster lookign thing going on so lowering it in the back evened it out. I have not had any problems with rubbing.

how about i jsut change the subject.
I looked under my car and the tube that connects to the front of the cat is broken right on the weld. obviously this is were my exhaust leak is from. but i tried starting the car and it wouldnt even start the first time. then i was like wtf and tried it once more and it started right up. I wonder if my cat is completely clogged or something. I banged on it to see if there was any stuff loose in there and it sounds fine.


grumble grumble.....

wheels are 17x8 front and 17x9.5 back. I guess this size is pretty rare for the replcas. and actually im not sure these are replicas because i cant find any mille miglia markings on them. how can i tell if theyre OEM, they would jsut have a porsche part number on them right.... ill have to look on the backside of the spokes whenever i have them off again.

hey heres a funny story. i drove my car to school and on the way home my freakin cat fell off.... yeah it was draggin on the ground. so i had to get under there with some safety wire and string it up. then i drove home, man that was loud.
