Default 'WHEEL SPIN-OFF' FROM DFW 928 GTG TODAY...

This AM at our monthly gtg, which was also the staging area for an awesome collection of cars
for our Eagle's Canyon Raceway run (what a blast!) --
Zane (Rog's bride) said she was interested in some pics of 928 wheels...

The least I could do -- I walked around the lot...
Interesting collection, so I thought I would share.
Ahhh, I'll have some D-90's someday . . .
Enjoy!

SeanR,

You certainly seem to 'keep an eye' on my every move, I've noticed!

Why weren't you watching me when I almost got left behind with the Ferrari????

Dang, that was close!

Hey Ed, you know the Porsche handbook states that the Porsche crest's point is supposed to point toward the valve stem. Beautiful rims but we have to deduct points because of your blantant disregard for following the rules.


Those are some nice pics.

Some nice looking rims, and I'm sure the cars are equally as nice. But one thing I notice about 928 owners in general, they tend to be cheapskates when it comes to tire selection. At least the PO's that I get my cars from anyway.

Yep, my Advan Neovas were pretty cheap, as in FREE courtesy of PCA and Yokohama.

You are correct. When the other owners reply, I'll give them a bad time also.

...I thought it was funny when someone pointed that out on my car which, by the way, I never bothered to change.

As 928 enthusiasts we should unite as proud sharks nonconformists and point 180 the 'desired' direction.

I think you're onto something there Tim. "Rebels Without a (proper) Crest"
