Cool I'm too excited, here's some pics

It's not done. I still have to put on the side sills, the driver's side door handle, lower the rear ride height, paint the calipers, etc., etc. After that I have suspension and interior work to do.
The wheels are Kahn RS-R's, 18x8 & 18x9.5. The tires are Pirelli PZero 225/40/18 front and 285/30/18 rear. There is alot of rubber in the back! The 996TT runs a 295/30/18.
I can't say enough about Dan's paint work, I'll let the pics speak for themselves.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I'll check and let you know.
A while back I posted a pic of a black 951 with these wheels on it hoping that someone would know where to find them. Nobody did and I found that I could only get the from the UK which would cost a small fortune to ship.
I got a reply in the wheel & tire forum here from the guy who owned the black 951. He had sold the car but still had the wheels and tires. I bought them immediately. I was just about to buy a different set of wheels when I found his post.

Beautiful car! Adjusting the rear eccentrics will really finish it off.

I think you need to upgrade to S4s or Big Reds now...those wheels make even the brmbos look tiny

VERY nice Pete! I've been watching the progress photos....amazing
